The most important biological traits affecting profit in eucalypt plantations grown for pulpwood are growth, wood density and pulp yield. Shrinkage and collapse are important for timber production. Little information is available on the size and direction of the correlations between these traits, yet they are important in determining selection response in breeding as well as environmental impacts on pulp and sawlog yield. The collaborating growers and breeders have brought together a unique base of Eucalyptus globulus and E. nitens field trials that will allow an integrated quantitative and molecular genetic study of the interrelationships amongst these key profit traits.

影响桉树纸浆林效益的最重要的生物学性状是生长、木材密度和纸浆产量。干缩和皱缩是木材生产中的重要问题。 这些性状之间的相关性的大小和方向的信息很少，但它们在决定育种选择反应以及环境对纸浆和锯木产量的影响方面很重要。 合作的种植者和育种者汇集了一个独特的蓝桉和E。nitens田间试验，这将允许一个综合的定量和分子遗传研究之间的相互关系，这些关键的利润性状。
