biodiversity, alien plant species, invasive alien species, flora, vegetation, impact of military actions, environment.Abstract
The article provides an overview of the current state of research on the synanthropic fraction of flora, phytoinvasions, urban flora, and the processes of synanthropization of vegetation within the objects of the nature reserve fund of Ukraine. Based on the generalization of works over the period 2020—2025, devoted to the study of the synanthropization of the vegetation cover of Ukraine, the achievements of Ukrainian scientists, primarily botanists and ecologists, are analyzed, current areas of research on this topic are outlined, and the impact of military actions on the state of the vegetation cover is considered.
