In the eastern, southeastern, and southern regions, the country is surrounded by the high mountain ranges of Altai, Tarbagatai, Dzhungarskiy Alatau, and Tien Shan. One of the important components of forests in abovementioned mountain ranges, as well as in the boron forests of Northern Kazakhstan, is the juniper, which has an important ecological role due to its water and soil protection and anti-mudflow significance. In addition, juniper is an important raw material for the production of essential oils, which are a source of pharmacological preparations. From this point of view, the development of scientific approaches for the preservation and augmentation of the genetic resources of juniper species in Kazakhstan has a high scientific and practical importance. In total, about 75 species of this genus grow in the world. Seven of them grow in Kazakhstan &#8212; <em>Juniperus communis<\/em>, <em>J.<\/em> <em>media<\/em>, <em>J. pseudosabina<\/em>, <em>J. sabina<\/em>, <em>J. semiglobosa<\/em>, <em>J. sibirica<\/em>, and <em>J. seravschanica<\/em>. However, there were no studies on geobotanical description of all 7 species of juniper, analysis of population structure and degree of genetic diversity in juniper populations, as well as molecular taxonomy of local taxa of the genus, including <em>J. seravschanica<\/em>, which is a rare species listed in the Red Book of Kazakhstan.<\/p>\n<p>The project focuses on collection of populations of each species with accompanying geobotanical studies. For the collected populations, an analysis of population structure and degree of genetic diversity is carried out using informative and highly polymorphic microsatellite DNA markers (SSR, simple sequence repeats), and species analysis using DNA barcoding technology. For molecular taxonomy, ITS (internal transcribed spacers) marker of the nuclear genome is used. In addition, the project carries out a complete sequencing of the chloroplast genome of all seven species of juniper grown in Kazakhstan using new genomic technologies.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0 The goal of the project<\/strong><strong>: <\/strong>study the intra- and interspecific genetic diversity of seven juniper species in Kazakhstan based on the use of polymorphic and informative DNA markers, including the nucleotide sequences of chloroplast genomes using new generation genomic technologies.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0 Expected results<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>The collection of 7 juniper species populations will be carried out, the species will be determined; herbariums will be compiled and digitized.

Whole-genome sequencing of the chloroplast (\u0441p) genome of all collected juniper species was carried out on the Illumina platform: NovaSeq 6000, including 7 species declared in the project application. A library of chloroplast genome fragments was prepared using the Illumina TruSeq Nano DNA reagent kit. The chloroplast genome of the studied juniper species varies from 127,469 bp. (<em>J. semiglobosa<\/em>) to 128,097 bp (<em>J. communis<\/em>). A phylogenetic analysis was also conducted based on 82 protein-coding genes for 7 Kazakh juniper species. The phylogenetic tree was constructed based on the Maximum Likelihood (ML) method using 21 samples of junipers from the NCBI database and 7 species of Kazakh junipers. The specimen <em>Hesperocyparis stephensonii<\/em> from NCBI was used as an outgroup. The aligned length of 82 protein-coding genes of juniper samples, including the outgroup, is 82,953 bp. It was revealed that 2990 bp or 3.6% of nucleotide sequences of protein-coding genes were polymorphic. The ML phylogenetic tree divided the juniper samples into two main clusters, corresponding to sections <em>Juniperus<\/em> and <em>Sabina<\/em>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Publications (202<\/strong><strong>3<\/strong><strong>):<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><strong><em>Publications in peer-reviewed foreign publications with a non-zero impact factor:<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Yermagambetova M., Almerekova S., Turginov O., Sultangaziev O., Abugalieva S., Turuspekov Y.
