  • Abstract:
  • Asclepiadaceae is the one of the popular families of flowering plants in India because of its ecological as well as economical potential. Climbing habit is also one of the significant feature of family Asclepiadaceae. The present investigation tends to highlight some shadowed angles of Asclepiadaceae members which are the dominant part of forest community in Amravati region. Eco-taxonomical variations and forest significance of Asclepiadaceae members has been worked out through continuous observational study. Each climber was analyzed with respect to their habit, habitat and distribution, seedling growth, climbing mechanism, way of host approach, association and the overall role in the forest community. The investigation summarized that all the naturalized species are well adapted to their community habitats and plays significant role. Some forest management activities will be harmful to their existence.
