SYNOPSIS

DNA was isolated from 12 clones of Eucalyptus grandis, and subsequently amplified with arbitrary primers (RAPD-PCR). It was possible to distinguish between the different clones on the basis of the resultant fingerprints. We conclude that the RAPD technique is suited for the identification of E. grandis clones, and should also be useful in genetic studies.
