本研究对2013-14年Sarguja森林分区Khairbar人工林sal幼苗的生长性能和草本植物区系多样性进行了评价。研究表明,Khairbar人工林幼苗高度存在显著的变化。幼苗根冠比为0.31 ~ 0.74。幼苗总高度24.00 ~ 90.00 cm。单株苗周长在4.00 ~ 12.00 cm之间。单株分枝数在4.00 ~ 17.00之间。盐苗木平均茎粗1.96 cm,结实度15.09 ~ 42.86;共发现草本植物15科27种。总密度-1为776000株,白茉莉为64000株(-1),最小密度为Achyranthus aspera, Malvastrum coromandelicum 和Rumex dentatus 分别为12000株(-1)。草本植物的Shannon指数(h&rsqu6;)为4.606,Simpson指数(Cd)为0.045,物种丰富度(d)为1.917,均匀度(e)为1.397。 It was observed that the growth performance of sal seedling in the Khairbar plantation site is quiet slow as compared to the other tropical species. It may also be due to the higher population of the herbaceous species. The herbaceous species compete with the sal species for the sharing of the resources for the growth and development. Micro climate and management aspects are the major concern for the good growth performance of the species in plantation sites.
