Abstract

The outcrossing rates of Shorea curtisii Dipterocarpaceae from an undisturbed 6-ha plot and an adjacent 4-ha selectively logged plot in Semangkok Forest Reserve were examined. Multilocus outcrossing rates were estimated from isozyme variation in progeny arrays using mixed-mating model. Approximately 50 seeds each from 10 mother trees were collected from the undisturbed plot. Another 5 mother trees were investigated in the selectively logged plot. Six polymorphic loci were obtained from 5 enzyme systems. The overall outcrossing rate of S. Curtisii in the logged-over plot is significantly lower tm0.697 than that of the species in the undisturbed plot tm 0.813. Drastic inbreeding was observed in one of the trees from logged “ over forest. Besides decrease in density of flowering trees lower outcrossing rates could also be due to the negative effect of logging on the pollinators; behaviour. Impact of selective logging on the mating system of S. curtisii and its implication in genetic diversity conservation and choice of seed source for plantation forest are discussed.
