Abstract
The use of modern methods of molecular phylogeny has allowed to establish the boundaries of the genus Stipa L. and its relationships at the genetic level. It was found that species of Stipa are of Eurasian origin. Using methods of molecular clock and genome cloning, the time of origin of different phylogenetic groups in Stipa was estimated and consequences of ancient intergeneric hybridization were identified. The main points of formation of steppes from paleosavannas (in the Neogene), tundra-steppe (in the Pleistocene) to the steppes of the Holocene were specified. The issues on coevolution of Stipeae and zoocomplexes due to changes in environmental conditions are considered. It is concluded that for protection of the steppe it is necessary to introduce a moderate level of sheep grazing.
Keywords: molecular phylogeny, Stipeae, paleosavanna, steppe, biogeography
