metadata.name: dc.description.abstract
metadata.value: In the 1960s–1980s, the Vavilov Institute of Plant Industry, known worldwide as
  VIR, organized a substantial series of studies dedicated to a Caucasian endemic,
  the Pliocene relic Vavilovia formosa (Fabeae: Fabaceae). Those investigations
  are little known to the scientific community, although, in fact, the priority right
  for integrated research into this plant belongs to VIR. As a result of the cycle of
  studies, the first ideas about the biology and ecology of the species, the manner
  of its reproduction, its intraspecific diversity, the degree of crossability with
  other members of the tribe, its karyotype and anatomy were developed. The
  plants of V. formosa are not reproduced ex situ and their germplasm is absent
  in the world’s gene banks. Therefore, collecting V. formosa plants in their hardto-
  reach habitats in the mountains is always crucial for research purposes, so a
  number of collecting expeditions were launched to the Greater Caucasus. The
  data thus obtained are discussed in the context of modern achievements in
  world science regarding this species.
