    The well-known Barnette conjecture says: If \(G\) is a 3-connected bipartite 3-valent planar graph, then \(G\) has a Hamilton cycle. This conjecture is true iff the vertices of each 3-colourable planar graph are partitionable into two subsets each inducing a forest. Among other results, the authors investigate some classes of planar graphs with this property.
