Within the context of the reciprocal recurrent selection scheme developed in 1989 by CIRAD-Foret on Eucalyptus, RAPD essays were performed to assess the genetic diversity in the two species E. urophylla and E. grandis. The molecular markers were split into two parts: the specific markers (present with different frequencies in the two species) and the common markers (present with similar frequencies in the two species). The study analyses the structure of genetic diversity within and between the two species of Eucalyptus. Different genetic distances are worked out for use in prediction equations of the individual tree trunk volume of hybrids at 38 months. Each distance is expressed as the sum of the general genetic distance and the specific genetic distance. The general genetic distance based on the double presence plus the double absence of bands seems to be an interesting co-variate to use in a factor regression model. Through this model the distance calculated between species explains the general combining ability (CCA) and the specific combining ability (SCA) of the phenotypic character with a global coefficient of determination of 81.6%.
