Abstract
⺠Genetically related clones and seedlings of Eucalyptus globulus were compared. ⺠Clones had less disease damage and changed to adult foliage earlier than seedlings. ⺠Clones showed 7% less diameter growth at harvest age than seedlings. ⺠Propagule type did not markedly affect genetic variance or breeding value estimates. ⺠No clear need emerged to match testing and deployment systems by propagule type.
