The genetic diversity and population structure of the endemic species of Baikal Siberia Oxytropis triphylla, O. bargusinensis, and O. interposita were studied for the first time on the basis of the nucleotide polymorphism of intergenic spacers psbA–trnH, trnL–trnF, and trnS–trnG of chloroplast DNA. All populations of these species were characterized by a high haplotype (0.762–0.924) and relatively low nucleotide (0.0011–0.0022) diversity. Analysis of the distribution of variability in O. triphylla and O. bargusinensis showed that there was no significant genetic differentiation between populations of each species; the gene flow was 4.43 and 8.91, respectively. The high level of genetic diversity in the studied populations indicates a relatively stable state of these populations. A study of the phylogenetic relationships of closely related species confirms the concept of the origin of O. bargusinensis and O. tompudae as a result of intersectional hybridization of the species of the sections Orobia and Verticillares.
