- Project 2: Maximising and maintaining site productivity
- Project 3: Identification of elite Eucalyptus nitens genetic material and molecular markers for risk traits
- Project 4: Models for breeding in Eucalyptus globulus
- Project 5: Biotic agents and site silvicultural practices: combined management approaches to maximise tree survival in hardwood plantations
- Project 6: Improved provenance choice for native forest silviculture and management in the face of climate change
