The Growth Pattern of Two Species of Schima by Ram Boojh and P. S. Ramakrishnan- BIOTROPICA 15(2): 142-147 1983
ABSTRACT– The growth patterns of two closely related deciduous tree species, Schima wallichii (at 100 m and 1600 in altitude), and S. khasiana (at 1900 m) in Meghalaya, north-eastern India, were compared. Both species conform to Rauh’s model of architecture. Sylleptic lateral branches formed on S. khasiana during periods of vigorous growth of the main shoot. Although stem extension and leaf production were continuous throughout the growing season, they exhibited (endogenous’) periodicity which was most marked in S. wallichi, at lower altitude. Schima wallichi at lower altitude had the fastest turnover of leaves.
