The aim of the study was to compare some life strategy traits of individuals of Purple Loosestrife Lythrum salicaria within three meadow populations existing under Effect of osmanthus hydrolat on the aroma quality and volatile components of osmanthus black tea various habitat conditions.The study attempted to answer the following questions: Do different habitat conditions affect the biomass allocation between particular organs of individuals? Can the individuals belonging to different populations of the same species realise their own unique reproductive strategy, in other words, can their reproductive effort represent various levels? In the case of L.salicaria the reproductive effort, measured by the participation of infl orescence biomass in the biomass of aboveground parts of genets, exhibits similar values (14.2-15.
1%) in all the study populations, despite their habitat conditions.This fact proves that at the population level, the reproductive effort is relatively stable.Great differences are visible in the case of particular individuals within each of the populations.Specific genets in a population, depending Sundowner Winds at Montecito during the Sundowner Winds Experiment on the habitat microstructure and the biotic relations with other individuals both of their own and other species, may realise their own reproductive strategies, being a part of their life strategies.
