| Abstract |
|
The genus 'Eucalyptus' contains many species suitable for the floriculture and amenity horticulture industries in Australia. A development program has been underway at the University of Adelaide, with the aim of producing new and novel hybrid eucalypt varieties for these industries through controlled pollination between selected ornamental species. As each new hybrid plant reaches reproductive maturity, it is assessed for desirable characters and the very best plants selected for further development, including response to production systems and vegetative propagation. Plants that perform well in cultivation and can be propagated vegetatively will be registered with Plant Breeders Rights and made available through commercial nurseries. |
