(h2m=0.94), indicating a strong genetic control of the trait within the population and also a high maternal effect. high variability within the study sample was found. %K in vitro regeneration %K genetic control %K eucalyptus grandis %K heritability. %U http://www.scielo.br/scielo.php?script=sci_abstract&pid=S0103-84782008000800014&lng=en&nrm=iso&tlng=en
