Abstract

The plant became grazed the study site - the pasture of Barandabhar corridor forest was marked into three zones, and the phonological behavior of Mimosa pudica and Desmodium triflorum was determined. The study site - the pasture of Barandabhar corridor forest was marked into three zones, and the phonological behavior of Mimosa pudica and Desmodium triflorum  (30 individuals sampled randomly from the marked zone) . Phanophage is described in case of seasonal variation of Bharandabhar forest as well as adjoin area of forest. The present study will be valuable for the management of medicinal herbs in Chitwan Nepal.
