The progeny test was established 1983, using 56 open-pollinated families of C. citriodora. Twenty fve years after planting the following traits were measured: height, diameter at breast height (Dbh), stem form and survival. Best growth occurred in Purple Latossol. Significant differences among progenies were detected for most traits in all sites, suggesting the possibility of improvement by selection. In the analysis with sites, Significant differences among locals, progenies and genotypes × soil interaction were detected, confiming that the tested material has sufficient genetic variation to be explored by selection in all sites. The analysis of genotype × soil interaction indicates that growth traits present single interaction and the same progenies can be selected in each site. On the order hand, genotype × soil interaction for stem form and survival was complex; and specifc progenies need to be selected for each kind of soil. The population, due to its high genetic variation and strong genetic control of traits, permits to obtain considerable genetic gains by selection among and within progenies.11-18porEucalyptusProgeny testSoilTree breedingCorymbiaDiameter-at-breast heightsExperimental stationsGenetic controlGenetic gainGenetic variationGrowth traitsOpen-pollinated familiesProgeny testsQuartz sandSoil interactionStem formComplexationForestryGenesGenetic engineeringOxide mineralsQuartzSoilsArtigoWOS:000277233400001Acesso aberto2-s2.0-779508146072-s2.0-77950814607.pdf9339164677717394
