Abstract
Investigation of phenotypical variety of cones and seeds in southern Siberian Scots pine populations (Krasnoyarskiy krai, Khakassia, Tuva, Buryatia) was carried out using the methods of A. I. Vidyakin [2004]. The analysis was conducted on the basis of 5 index features and 6 qualitative features. The populational level of 7 features was confirmed. These features also proved appropriate to be used as markers of genetic variability of southern Siberian Scots pine populations.
