Abstract. The purpose of the study. The estimation of genetic polymorphism of Kazakhstan populations of rare relict and endemic Allium species. The novelty of the research is the use of the modern molecular genetic iPBS (Inter- Primer Binding Site Polymorphism) method of DNA amplification to assess the genetic diversity of different populations of Allium sp., collected in their natural habitats in the Kazakhstan Altai. Methods. Samples of medicinal relict and endangered species A. ledebourianum, A. altaicum, A. microdiction were collected in the places of their natural growth in the territory of the Kazakhstan Altai. DNA was isolated from 3–5 day sterile seedlings using lysis STAB buffer with RNaseA. PBS primers were used to assess the genetic diversity of different populations of Allium spp. The amplification results obtained using different PBS primers were evaluated in the GenAlex 6.5 macro program for Excel. Results. The polymorphism of 16 genotypes of the rare relict and endangered Allium sp. was analyzed using 7 PBS primers. Clearly distinguishable amplicons were obtained, the number of which varied depending on the primer used. The dendrogram, based on UPGMA analysis, grouped the studied genotypes into 2 main clusters, one of which included samples from the A. altaicum population, and the second cluster included samples from the A. ledebourianum population. A. microdiction represented by one sample did not enter any cluster, and formed a basal branch in the dendrogram. The results of the study have revealed a high degree of iPBS polymorphism and genetic diversity in rare relict and endangered Allium sp. Practical significance. The use of the molecular genetic iPBS method allows to identify a high level of polymorphism, which can serve as a basis for the identification of various genotypes of the Allium sp., which will significantly supplement traditional preservation methods of natural populations of this genus.
