Abstract
Effects of site and clone origin on basic wood density of teak (Tectona grandis) were studied in 18 clones grown in two different locations in Kerala. Analysis of the data showed that site has a great influence on wood density while place of origin of clones has no effect. Inter-clonal variation was significant at 5 level. No evidence of any interaction between site and clones could be seen. Hence selection of sites has to be given importance while selecting areas for teak plantations. Exploitation of tree-to-tree variation will also improve the wood density in teak.
