Pinus sylvestris is an economically and ecologically important conifer widely distributed through much of Europe. It is adapted to wide range of environmental conditions and its genetics has been well studied. Number of Genetic maps have been created for P. sylvestris. Genetic maps are important tools not only for QTL mapping but also to study evolution.
