Abstract
The conifers, in general, retain a great deal of genetic variation for all manner of traits, from the molecular level to whole-plant phenotypes, and everything in between. It is also true that species vary widely in the amount and distribution of variation they possess for specific traits, and some, like those with very restricted ranges or those that have been forced through genetic bottlenecks, may be severely limited for variation in some or all traits. These conditions apply equally to traits associated with forest health, the consequences of which are becoming increasingly important to the world’s forests, and our reliance on the resources they provide.
