Abstract
The documentation of forest wealth in the Himalayas is of great importance because of biotic pressure on them. The applied system of management and conservation of forests is of immediate concern for the present and future generation. Such study is useful to known the type of plant community development through succession under single stand management system. The present study revealed the dominance of Cedrus deodara an endemic species of Indian Himalayas in all Periodic Blocks with maximum dominance in PB II. Among different PBs maximum diversity in species was found in PB IV with highest density of Quercus floribunda followed by Cedrus deodara and Pinus wallichiana. Among shrub species Berberis aristata showed maximum dominance in PB I, PB II and PB IV. However, Sarcococca saligna was dominant in PB III and as a next dominant species in PB I and PB II. It also showed highest density in PB I, PB II and PB III. While Berberis aristata indicated highest density in PB IV. Among herbaceous vegetation most dominant species was Eragrostis nutans in all periodic blocks. The maximum regeneration of Cedrus deodara was found in the decreasing trend as PBI >PB >PB >IV >PBIII >PBII. The maximum contribution to regeneration among various Periodic Blocks was of Cedrus deodara followed by Quercus floribunda, Pinus wallichiana and Quercus leucotrichophora.
