Abstract

The genus Pinus is one of the important trees in forest of Indian Himalayan Region. Pinus is the largest genus in the family Pinaceae. In the Indian Himalayan Region five species of Pinus have been reported. It plays an important ecological and economic role in Indian Himalayan forestry, where over 8, 90,000 hectares (ha) are covered by planted and natural forests of these species. Like other conifers, the genus has a large genome size which have great hindrance in their sequencing. They have also used for large-scale investigations of expressed gene sequences which provide information to map the genes. A wide range of genetic diversity showed high gene flow in these species. Therefore, it is anticipated that pine genetic mapping activities will continue to grow and used to study the genetic architecture of quantitative traits and facilitate the future assembly of the genome sequences of these species.
