This experiment was conducted to evaluate the suitability of medium density fiberboard (MDF) made from hybrid Acacia wood fiber as raw material and urea formaldehyde (UF) as resin binder. Single layer fiberboards were fabricated by five different densities e.g. [...]
The paper deals with seed germination and seedlings growth performance of Calamus erectus in the nursery and field conditions. Clean seeds were sown in the seed bed filled with soil and decomposed cow dung at 3sl ratio. Seeds started [...]
Aglaia cucullata (Roxb.) Pellegr. is a less salt-tolerant tree species of Sundarban mangrove ecosystem. The present study was conducted to investigate the influence of salinity on the survival and growth ofA. cucullata seedlings and nutrient distribution in seedling parts. [...]
Germination percentage of Tamarindus indica L. seeds were observed with 4 pre-sowing treatments viz, i) soaked in cow urine for 24 hours, ii) soaked in cow dung slurry for 24 hours, ii) soaked in tap water for 24 hours, [...]
This paper presents the assessment of both the natural and planted species diversity of the Sitakunda Botanical Garden and Eco-park, Chattogram. A total of 267 plant species from 101 families are recorded in three zones namely disturbed, undisturbed and [...]
The study was conducted at Bangladesh Forest Research Institute, Chattogram to assess the effect of different growing media on germination and growth of Dipterocarpus turbinatus and Artocarpus chama seedlings in the nursery. The media used in the experiment were [...]
The paper deals with seed germination behavior and seedling growth performance of Calamus latifolius Roxb; with 5 pre-sowing treatments in the nursery and field conditions. The pre-treatments of seeds were i) seeds soaked in tap water for 24 hours, [...]

Functioning and productivity of forest ecosystems vastly dependents on the phenological characteristics of the tree species. The study was carried out from June 2017 to December 2018 to explore the phenological traits of 74recalcitrant seed bearing tree species of [...]
Dendrocalamus giganteus is one of the biggest and largest bamboo of Bangladesh which is locally known as bhudum bansh. The conventional
propagation methods of bamboos are not economically viable for large scale production due to their scarcity of seeds, low [...]
