    Reproductive Allocation in Euphorbia wallichii Hook. f. in Natural Populations of Kashmir Himalaya

    By Afrozah Hassan, Irshad Ahmad Nawchoo, G.G. Mohi-ud-din

    Abstract: AbstractEuphorbia wallichii is an important medicinal plant of Kashmir Himalaya. The study on resource allocation reveals that species allocates maximum resources towards the growth and development of the below ground part followed by aerial part. High altitude populations have more reproductive effort than low altitude populations. Partitioning of resources is not uniform, it varies in different parts of the plant species with different altitudes. The total resource budget per plant …

    Distribution, Species Morphology, Phenotypic Variability and Phenology of Epilobium hirsutum L.: A Comparative Study

    By Afrozah Hassan, Asma Ashraf, Irshad A. Nawchoo, Sumeera Nazir, Fayaz Ahmad Lone

    Abstract: AbstractThe species is distributed along an altitudinal range of 1500–2700m asl. Significant variability in phenotypic traits was observed within and across different populations. A considerable trend of decreasing phenotypic characteristics was observed with decrease in altitudinal gradient. The plants in transplanted site (KUBG) diverge in various traits and timing of phenophases from other three natural populations through Chadoora, Shopian and Shalimar. The plant height decreases with decrease in altitude and …
