Abstract

Terminalia bellirica Roxb is a large tree up to 40 meters high belongs to family Combretaceae. Due to over-exploitation (because of its multipurpose uses), tremendous population pressure, rural poverty, absence of appropriate government policy, accelerated growth of synthetic drugs and inappropriate utilization of forest products, these vital plat resources are being declined besides these, natural regeneration through seeds is very poor, uncertain and required long time to germinate, thus the State Forest Departments avoid the species in the afforestation and/or reforestation programs. Seeds from different locations in Rajasthan were analyzed for seed quality as well as germination potentials with different treatments. GA3 was found to increase seed germination in comparison to others. A detailed work with review work on its reproductive biology is presented in the present study.
