THE FIRST HEALING AND BOTANICAL GARDENS ON THE TERRITORY OF MODERN UZBEKISTAN

The first botanical garden in the city with an area of 8 hectares was created in 1922 on the territory of the garden of the Turkestan Governor-General. Initially, it belonged to the Central Asian State University. In 1944 he was transferred to the Academy of Sciences of the Uzbek SSR. The staff of the Tashkent Botanical Garden published a 14-volume "Dendrology of Uzbekistan" (in Russian), thematic collections, including 27 (as of the early 2000s) collections "Introduction of Plants", 5 (as of the early 1980s) " Proceedings”, many monographs and scientific articles. A significant contribution to the development of publications was made by Academician F. N. Rusanov, who in 1943-1975 was the director, and in 1976-1979 - scientific consultant of the garden.
