Resumen:
The study of the globular cluster systems (GCSs) is closely related to the galaxies´~ formation and evolution. During the last years, we have performed several photometric studies of GCSs around galaxies in the Fornax and Antlia clusters, including central galaxies as well as low-luminosity ones. Their main results, related to the GCSs properties, are presented here. We analyze the colour distributions, azimuthal and radial projected distributions, and luminosity functions, and determine the globular cluster total populations and specific frequencies. These global results can be applied to possible scenarios that deal with the galaxy evolution within clusters and, particularly, some characteristics of the GCSs may be useful to trace subtle interaction processes between the galaxies.
