Tree stand floristic dynamics in secondary forests of different ages in Sarawak, Malaysia

Succession is a series sequential processes of the development of floristic community which involves changes in community structure, species composition and diversity over time. The information on tree stand floristic dynamics of various stages of succession in secondary forests in Malaysia is curre...
