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

Abstract Malus sieversii is one of the main forest-forming wild-growing species in the mountain ecosystems of the south and southeast of Kazakhstan. Unfortunately, over the past half century, the area of wild populations of M. sieversii has dramatically decreased. One of the main dangers for this species is now insect pests, which caused huge damage to these wild forests. The main part of harmful to the wild apple organisms are arthropods, harming various degrees. Currently, there are 7 species of acariformes, 120 insect species from 7 orders associated with M. sieversii.
