Fifteen provenances of Eucalyptus grandis were included in species and provenance trials of eucalypts established in southeastern China in 1986. There were very significant differences in volume growth among these provenances: those from north Queensland performed better than others; one seedlot from Coffs Harbour and seed from a seed orchard in South Africa were relatively inferior. Although wood density did not vary significantly between provenances, tree-to-tree variation was great, ranging from 350 to 670 kg per cu m, with a mean of 432 kg per cu m.
