Genetic assessment and variation study among different populations of Shorea robusta Gaertn. f. in Jharkhand, India.

The article presents a study on the growth pattern among different populations of Shorea robusta and identified the best population which can serve as the seed source for raising seedlings and establishing the plantations. Shorea robusta is one of the most important timber species of the family Dipterocarpaceae. The researchers analyzed the correlation among traits and the genetic assessment and variation and morphological diversity among different populations for growth contributing trait.
