In this issue, original research relating to the topics on the reproductive ecology of economically and ecologically important leguminous species has been included. The plant species that have been worked out include Canavalia gladiata, Tephrosia purpurea, Tephrosia villosa, Indigofera linnae, Evolvulus alsinoides, Evolvulus nummularius and Merremia tridentata and Cochlospermum religiosum. The plant species also include IUCN red-listed endemic and endangered, and keystone plant species, Tarenna asiatica, Pavetta tomentosa, Rhynchosia beddomei, Hildegardia populifolia, Syzygium alternifolium, Eriolaena lushingtonii and Shorea roxburghii distributed in the Eastern Ghats of Andhra Pradesh. Further, the reproductive ecology, conservation and management of two gymnosperm species belonging to Cycadaceae family, Cycas beddomei and Cycas sphaerica have been included; both species are IUCN red-listed species, the first one is an endemic while the second one is a data-deficient species. This book is a perfect document providing complete details on all aspects of the reproductive ecology of the plant species stated above.
