Abstract
Results of caryological and cytogenetic studies of conifers of the boreal zone carried out at the Institute of Forest during many years are summarized. These species belong to four genera of the Pinaceae family: Larix (larch), Pinus (pine), Picea (spruce) and Abies (fir). Totally, more than 100 populations and habitats of various species from these genera have been studied. Species of both optimal and extreme growing conditions have been studied. Studies of representatives of the Cupressaceae family have been started. A special attention was paid to conifers growing on swamps and in forest cultures.
