Description: The Proceedings reports the results of a workshop focusing on the topic of bark beetle genetics. The workshop evolved because of the growing interest in this relatively unexplored area of bark beetle research. Workshop participants submitted brief descriptions of their views of the current status of bark beetle genetic research and needs for the future. Contributions vary from broad overviews to detailed descriptions of specific projects. A common theme is the potential for rapid advances in this area of research given recent technological advances in the field of genetics. Also included is an extensive reference list.

Key Words: Dendroctonus species, Ips species, scolytid genetics, taxonomy
