Diversity, stand structure and regeneration status of woody species, and spatial cover of herbaceous species in Mokolodi Nature Reserve, Southeastern Botswana

摘要: Diversity of woody and herbaceous species, stand structure regeneration status spatial cover the species as well nutritional values were studied in Mokolodi Nature Reserve (MNR), Botswana. Ten 1 ha quadrats used to collect data, each quadrat, ten m2 plots estimate species. MNR exhibited high genera family richness, but low diversity eveness. The eveness 1.44 0.38, respectively. Density was about 4,785 ha-1. Most demonstrated unstable population structures hampered natural regeneration. all only 44.67% ranged between while there no information on nutrtion for 16 55% dominance indicate inadequate number big-sized trees, that is still at recovery phase. For 68% hampered. Future research topics recommendations future management are proposed. Key words: Density, dominance, evenness, frequency, importance value index, value, over grazing, structure, soil erosion, richness.
