Аннотация (краткое описание)
Being home to over 6,000 plant species, Kazakhstan is a world leader when it comes to biodiversity hotspots, and nearly 150 plant species of medicinal value are on the verge of extinction. According to the Red Book of Kazakhstan (2021), there are 42 species of medicinal plants in Kazakhstan that are "endangered" and "critically endangered," the main reason for which is loss of habitat (55%), over-harvesting (30%), and climate change (15%). Aiming for a comprehensive conservation plan, this research focuses on the site of major distribution areas of endemics such as Rheum tataricum and Glycyrrhiza uralensis, constructing a living gene bank with more than 1,000 seed specimens, and enhancing local community participation. It also suggests creating more stringent legislation to curb illegal harvesting and increasing protected territories to 20% by the year 2030. Preliminary findings suggest that the execution of this approach can guarantee the survival of 80% of the target species within the decade.DOI
