Abstract
The present study was conducted to evaluate early growth performance of 16 improved genotypes of Melia dubia under low hills conditions of Himachal Pradesh. The seedlings were procured from Forest research Institute, Dehradun and planted under Randomized Block Design (RBD) in experimental farm of College of Horticulture and Forestry, Neri, Hamirpur, Himachal Pradesh. Three months growth was recorded and analysed for height, diameter and genetic parameters. Significant variation was recorded for diameter and height growth among seedlings of different genotypes. Both diameter and height growth traits showed high values for heritability and genetic advance indicating good scope of early selection for these traits in these genotypes. Genotype 241 and 231 were found best in terms of evaluated traits.
