Phytodiversity study in natural forest of Pavagadh, Gujarat

Abstract

Phytodiversity study was carried out in the natural, dry decidous forest of Pavagadh, Panchmahal district, Gujarat, India. This study was carried out in various vegetational stratas i.e., the woody and the herbaceous layer. The heterogeneity in selection of sampling sites was reflected from the similarity index. The various phytosociological parameters like species richness, dominance and evenness index exhibited variations in both the strata in almost all the sites.
