Abstract

The present study was conducted in urban areas of Kota district in rainy and winter seasons. Data revealed that in Rainy season Aristida depressa (IVI 22.22) at R.T.U., Cynodon dactylon (IVI 25.45) at C.V.G. and Brachiaria ramosa (IVI 32.32) at Ch.G were the most dominant species. Whereas in winter season Polygonum plebeium with IVI (21.29) at R.T.U.; Cynodon dactylon with IVI (36.32) at C.V.G. and Cynodon dactylon with IVI (39.61) at Ch.G. ranked first among all the species. Perusal of data revealed that at site R.T.U. the maximum IVI was showed by Acacia leucophloea (96.17) followed by Azadirachta indica (65.87), Acacia nilotica (62.41) and Dichrostachys cinerea (38.38). At site C.V.G. highest IVI was showed by Mangifera indica (54.52). Data revealed that at site Ch. G Cassia fistula was observed as the most dominant species with IVI (86.09) followed by Poinciana regia (71.42), Azadirachta indica (66.2) and Bauhinia variegata (43.1).
