Abstract
Quadrat study was carried out on regeneration of rosewood (Dalbergia latifolia Roxb.), in the Janmam Forests of Gudalure Forest Division of Coimbatore Circle, Tamil Nadu. This is a mountainous forest tract consisting of moist deciduous, grass-phoenix, and semi-evergreen types of vegetation. More frequency, abundance and density of rosewood ischolar_main suckers were observed in Phoenix- Careya- Dalbergia association (0.67, 8.75,and 5.83 respectively) followed by Olea- Mallotus- Lantena association (0.36, 3.00 and 1.09 respectively), and Cinnamomum- Zizyphus- Dalbergia association (0.40, 2.00 and 0.80 respectively). Suggestions have been made to preserve and protect these young plants of rosewood which have come up naturally and to propagate ischolar_main suckers artificially which will improve the rosewood population in the tract.
