Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

In the article the results of field studies of the medicinal plant Achillea millefolium L. in forest protected areasof the Western and Southern Altai ridges were presented. The total study area covers 4 ranges of the WesternAltai (Ivanovsk, Ulbinsk, Ubinsk, Listvyaga) and 3 ranges of the Southern Altai (Narymsk, Kurchumsk andSouth Altai Tarbagatai). The survey of Achillea millefolium raw material stocks and its ecological state wereassessed using generally accepted methods, taking into account intensive harvesting of this plant in the region.In 2 ridges: Ubinsk (Ust-Kamenogorsk SI) and Ivanovsk (Pikhtovsk SI) we have revealed and taken intoaccount that yarrow forms thickets on grass-grassy meadows and along forest edges. Useful properties anduses of Achillea millefolium has a wide range, this is evidenced by their chemical composition: isovalerian,fatty and salicylic acid, asparagine, sterol, phenol, bitter and tannins, alkaloid, flavonoid, glycoside, essentialoil, terpenoid, steroid, sesquiterpene derivatives, resins, saponin. The survey of common yarrow showed thatraw material should be harvested during flowering. In terms of exploitable reserve, it is noted that it varies inthe range of 4.19–7.89 tons. Yarrow raw reserves in the Southern Altai are accounted for in 13 populations, in4 pilot forest protection institutions: Zyryanovsk State Institution (4 populations); Bolshenarymsk State Institution(2 populations); Katon-Karagai (KK) SNNP (4 populations); Kurchumsk State Institution (3 populations).The exploitable stock in the Southern Altai varies in the range 4.95–118.31 tons. The stocks volume inthe following pilot SIs are suitable for commercial harvesting: Bolshenarymsk SI, Katon-Karagay SNNP,Kurchum SI and Zyryanovsk SI.
