Fig. 5. Principal component analysis of the relationship between the composition of ST and soil characteristics of Chenopodiaceae. Vector designations: M – mineralization, Н О – moisture, pH – soil acidity; Δ5, Δ7 and Δ0 are the sums of 2 Δ5 -, Δ7-and Δ0-STs, respectively; Сhol, Camp, β-sito, Stig are the contents of cholesterol, campesterol, β-sitosterol, and stigmasterol. The dots indicate the names of the species: A. aphyla – I, C. arenarius – II, C. crassa – III, H. strobilaceum – IV, B. prostrata – V, S sedoides – VI, S. perennans – VII, S. eltonica –VIII, S. linifolia – IX, S. physophora – X, S. salsa –XI, A. cana – XII, H. verucifera – XIII. The content of mineral residue, moisture and acidity of the soil in the root zone of plants of the Chenopodiaceae are shown in Table 3.
