Description Not Available
Chilgoza pine (Pinus gerardiana Wall.) is an important ecological and economic species having a restricted
distribution in India. It is very much restricted in dry temperate region of North-Western Himalaya. There
are large numbers of biotic and abiotic factors affecting it and lack of regeneration in this pine may result in
the extinction of the species. Young/middle age classes are scarce or entirely lacking, the mature and over
mature trees predominate in its natural zones. Phytosociological study shows the high endemism of the
Pinus gerardiana species in its natural zone. Overall more than 60% of the area was covered by this species
and rest by other species. Therefore, the productivity and sustainability of chilgoza pine has to be ensured.
