During the 4th International Consultation on Forest Genetics and
Tree Building, held in 1998 in Beijing, China, leading scientists
were invited to review past achievements, to redefine the role of
forest genetics and breeding in contemporary forestry, and to set
priorities for future research and development. On the basis of the
invited presentations, the volume summarizes the state of knowledge
in various fields, such as the impact of forest management and of
changing environmental conditions on genetic resources, and the
value of genetic markers as indicators for adaptational potential,
as well as the tasks of conservation. Detailed reports from the
different continents provide a comprehensive diagnosis of the
global situation of forest genetics and tree breeding research. The
book offers not only an overview of contemporary trends and
expected future developments, but also identifies current main
problems in funding and cooperation. It may prove therefore useful
not only for scientists, university lecturers and advanced students
in the field of forestry, ecology and conservation biology, but
also for decision makers and managers in companies and conservation
organizations.
