The severely threatened Central Asian (CA) flora requires a detailed conservation strategy well adapted to this region. The present review provides a detailed conservation methodology useful for every CA country that embraces ex situ and in situ approaches as inter-linked components. The proposed strategy includes the following major points: i) conservation planning gives the highest priority to the most endangered local endemics with regeneration problems; ii) these species are the focus in reserve design, monitoring and assessment of efficiency of a reserve network, and in creation of seed banks and living collections; iii) the species recovery plans include an ex situ component to maintain the endangered species germplasm, an in situ component to maintain natural populations, and a quasi in situ component to link them so as to obtain large quantities of planting material to be used in recovery actions, such as reinforcement and translocation; and iv) assessment of success in species recovery programs based on clearly specified objectives and criteria necessarily including evidence of regeneration in natural populations. Successful adoption and implementation of this strategy in CA requires stricter protection of nature reserves and national parks than is currently done and tighter coordination in development and implementation of the conservation plans between scientists from the five CA countries.
