Biography, scientific achievements

A prominent scientist in the field of soil microbiology. Specialization - soil actinomycetes. She proved the specificity of actinomycete complexes of various types of soils, described the patterns of distribution of mycelial prokaryotes in biogeocenoses of various natural and climatic zones. For the first time she substantiated the concept of actinolichens as a symbiotic association. She developed an idea of ​​the significance of the actinomycete complex in the biodiagnostics of anthropogenic disturbances.
