摘要：This paper reviews the study of genetic resources and advances in the classification of the eucalypts with emphasis on the new taxonomic system put for-ward by K.D. Hill and L.A.S. Johnson. The eucalypts comprise three genera, Angophora Cav., Corymbia K.D. Hill & L.A.S. Johnson and Eucalyptus L'Herit., with over 945 taxa totally recognized at present. The effects of the taxonomic changes on domestication and practical forestry with eucalypts are discussed, in particular, with those taxa that have been important plantation species in China. Research direction in eucalypt domestication and tree breeding is also discussed.
