Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumors of the uterus (uIMT) are rare and difficult to diagnose neoplasms, since the morphological characteristics of this tumor are not specific and are found in other pathological changes. In addition, until recently, specific uIMT markers have not been identified and their diagnostic standards not defined. However, in recent years, there have been more and more studies aimed to identify characteristic morphological, immunohistochemical, and molecular genetic features for the differential diagnosis of uIMT.

In the plantation examined, statistically significant local concentration of most of the alleles in two-dimensional space was identified. The measures for protection of this small population located outside of the western border of the species range, in the mountain--steppe habitat, and characterized by specific gene pool, are suggested.

(Grassulaceae), a Southern Ural endemic protected by the state and included in the Red Data Book of Bashkortostan Republic. A relatively large genetic variation at the species level has been found.
