The chlorophyll content of leaf as influenced by four water stress levels on seedlings belonging to 9 seed sources of 30 progenies of Acacia nilotica was studied in controlled conditions. Considerable differences were observed among seed sources with respect to chlorophylls a and 6, and total chlorophyll (a + b) content (nig g-1 fresh weight). Chlorophyll content decreased with increasing water stress in all the sources, however, the decrease was higher in seedlings of the humid sources as compared to dry sources. Overall high amount of chlorophyll content (chlorophyll a, b and total) was observed in seed sources collected from drier region of the country, whereas, low chlorophyll content was observed from humid sources. The chlorophyll contents were negatively correlated with rainfall.Keywords

Seed germination studies in four Rhododendron species were carried out in BOD incubator at 20°C ± 1°C temperature under continuous light as well as in open laboratory conditions at 25°C ± 2°C temperature. In BOD incubator, maximum 76.25% germination was recorded in the seeds of Rhododendron anthopogon followed by 61.5% in R. campanulatum and 59.25% in R. barbatum with 59.25% while minimum 53.5% was recorded in R. arboreum. However, in open lab conditions (25°C ± 2°C), maximum germination 56.5% was recorded in Rhododendron anthopogon followed by 47.5% in R. barbatumand minimum 41.0% in R. campanulatum. Highest number of seed per capsule was observed in R. campanulautum (900-1100) followed by R. arboreum (850-1000), R. barbatum (300-400) and R. anthopogon (350-450). Maximum seed length 2.93 mm and seed width 1 mm was observed in Rhododendron barbatum followed by R. campanulatum (2.04 and 0.63 mm) and R. arboreum (1.71 mm and 0.63 mm) while, minimum (1.04 mm and 0.47 mm) was recorded in R. anthopogon.Keywords

The genus Rhododendron constitutes a dominant combination in temperate, subalpine and alpine vegetation of the Western Himalaya. In this study, we examined the species composition, diversity, dominance and importance value index of Rhododendron and associate tree species along with altitudinal gradient in Garhwal Himalaya at three forest sites. Rhododendron arboreum and H. barbatum emerged as a dominant species on the site I, lies (2100-2900 m) with the IVI values 122.48 and 50.67 respectively. Quercus semicarpifolia, Taxus baccata and Abies pindrow were the main associate species of these two Rhododendron species. At site second which is forming the transition zone of timber line and alpine postures (3000 to 3600 m) R. campanulatum was pure patches. At site ill which lies at an altitude of 3900 to 4200 m, R. anthopogon and R. lepidotum were found in pure patches as well as mixed form. The associate species were perennial herbs and grasses. The highest IVI was found in R. anthopogon (195.80) followed by R. campanulatum (185.07) and minimum IVI was recorded in case of R. barbatum (50.67) among Rhododendrons. However, Quercus semicarpifolia recorded highest IVI (82.93) followed by Taxus baccata and minimum IVI value was observed in Abies pindrow (7.49) among associates.Keywords

The policy directives issued by the government of India from time to time since the announcement of the National Forest Policy, 1988 indicate the existence of a 'learning curve' in the process of implementation of JFM in India. This paper gives an account about the status of Joint Forest Management (JFM) in the Kamraj Forest Division, Zangli Kupwara of Jammu and Kashmir. The land holding pattern in the state is totally different from the other states as, most of the land belongs to forest department. The JFM was formallv adopted in Jamp;K State by issuing a notification SRO 61 dated 19-03-1992. The concept of JFM caught up in the State through formation of VFCs. At present IS99 VFCs are functioning over the state, both with social forestry projects and the territorial wings of forest department and around 10000 ha of land is under rehabilitation with the assistance and participation of VFCs. In Kamraj Forest Division, 58 VFC's are working and an area of1500 ha land has been rehabilited by National Afforestration Programme from 2003 to 2007.Keywords

The present study was carried out in Banju Nami Tok sacred grove situated in village Chachganda of district Tehri to describe the role of small sacred groves dedicated to local deities in conservation. The grove covers an area of less than two hectares. This grove is dominated by Quercus leucotrichophora which is the only remnant of this species around 2 few km within that vicinity. In the present study 28 plant species which includes 12 tree, 5 shrub and 10 herb species belonging to 19 families were recorded. These plant species have different economic values like medicinal, edible, timber, oil and dye yielding and are used for making furniture, constructive timber and agricultural implements. Asteraceae and Lamiaceae families represent the maximum number (3 each) of species. This grove provides different ecosystem services in the form of water, soil conservation and beautification of village.Keywords

The present study was carried out to investigate the effect of chemical treatment (IBA) on ischolar_maining, primary ischolar_main number and ischolar_main length of the cuttings of Himalayan evergreen oak (Quercus leucotrichohora Camus). A significant variation at P<0.05 level was observed on mean ischolar_maining percentage in two concentrations % IBA. The per cent ischolar_maining and primary ischolar_main numbers improved markedly upon application of both concentrations. Maximum per cent ischolar_maining (36) was recorded in cuttings treated with IBA 4000 ppm followed by (28) IBA 2000 ppm, while it was only 24 per cent ischolar_maining in control (cuttings treated with telicam powder only). Primary ischolar_main number was also maximum in the cuttings treated with IBA 4000 ppm.Keywords
