Abstract
The development of
Scutellaria supinа individuals was studied in the Asian part of the distribution range. Four life forms (subshrub, dwarf subshrub, taproot herbaceous polycarpic and long-rhizomatous-taproot herbaceous polycarpic) were described in different growing conditions. The mechanisms of structural transformations of individual plants and modes of morphological evolution of life forms of the species were detected.
