Phenology of Some Phanerogams (Trees and Shrubs)‎ of Northwestern Punjab, India

Abstract EN

Plants perform various vegetative and reproductive functions throughout the year in order to persist in their habitats.

The study of these events including their timing and how the environment influences the timing of these events is known as phenology.

This study of the timing of seasonal biological activities of plants is very important to know about plant’s survival and its reproductive success.

The variation in the phenological activities is due to change in different abiotic conditions.

This paper deals with the study of phenological activities like bud formation, flowering time, fruiting time, and seed formation for some leguminous plants of Amritsar, Punjab (a state in the northwest of India) for three consecutive years from 2009 till 2011.
