Work


Pojarkova was a principal editor with B. N. Gorodkov and author of many components of the 5-volume series Flora of the Murmansk region (Flora Murmanskoj oblasti) which was published by the USSR Academy of Sciences,[2] and with Vladimir Leontyevich Komarov of the 30-volume series Flora SSSR, which was translated into English as Flora of the USSR.

As well as discovering new species, her work is notable for creating infrageneric groups, such as Acer section Trilobata and Crataegus series Orientales.

Her specimen collection has been published for scientific study.[3]

The genus Pojarkovia in the daisy family Asteraceae is named in her honour.

The standard author abbreviation Pojark. is used to indicate this person as the author when citing a botanical name.[4]
