Abstract
Medicinal plants have been associated with human life throughout history and have been used as food, fodder and medicine. One of these plants is wild celery, which is one of the endemic plants of the Zagros region of Iran, which, like other plants, undergoes some biotic and abiotic stresses during its growth in these regions. Wild celery is resistant to temperature, humidity and drought stress in its growing place, because over time it has adapted to the conditions of the Zagros region. There is no salt in the natural growth place of this plant. Regional pests have also been observed in the main habitats of this plant. By knowing the ecological conditions of its growing place as a model from nature, wild celery can be cultivated in agricultural conditions. leucoptera scitella zell, Hyadaphis foeniculi and Eupithecia sp are regional pests of wild celery. When wild celery is cultivated in the field, the most important weeds in its fields are mentioned Avena ludoviciana Dur, Hordeum murinum L., Hordeum spontaneum C. Koch, Secale cereal L, Phalaris minor Retz., Bromus tectorum L., Malva sylvestris L., and Alhagi camelorum Fisch.
