Studying the level and structure of the genetic diversity of rare species is important for creating an effective strategy for their conservation. Using iPBS markers in our study, it was found that C. calceolus genotypes have a rather low level of genetic diversity. Genetic differentiation was found mainly within coenopopulations, which may be caused by the phenomenon of cross-pollination. The genetic distance between coenopopulations corresponded to their geographic location.
