Abstract
Abstract Sievers Apple tree is listed in the Red book of Kazakhstan and is protected by The International Union for Conservation Nature. The total area of wild forests in the territory of Zhongar – Alatau Natural Park is 8,573 thousand ha (1.05% of the park area). In order to preserve Apple forests, studies on Malus sieversiisoftwood cuttings have been carried out, taking into account their genetic purity. Genetic analysis of Malus sieversii diversity, using DNA markers, showed that only inaccessible and most remote reserves (Kokzhota 1,2, Chernova river) are considered the best crops on the territory of natural Park, that are unaffected by the processes of genetic erosion and do not contain DNA Malus domestica. They served as mother plants for harvesting green cuttings for reproduction by green cuttings technology. On the basis of the obtained data, recommendations for the reproduction of Malus sieversii in the territory of the Zhongar-Alatau natural Park to strengthen the weakened populations of the species are developed. It is recommended to create temporary collections by green cuttings and transplanting into natural habitats.
