ESTIMATION OF THE MATING SYSTEM OF Eucalyptus benthamii Maiden at Cambage PROGENY

Eucalyptus benthamii is an important species used in monoclonal and hybrid forest plantations around the world. Few natural populations of remain, as such it has been placed on list endangered species. We sampled 111 seeds from nine progenies across two provenances (Candói - progenies; Vale do Corisco seven progenies). Samples were genotyped using 19 microsatellite loci. A high number alleles (from 80 to 114) found studied progenies.
