Summary, etc. The influence of soil moisture regimes and stage of host introduction on <br/>seedling growth of sandal provenances was investigated in a pot culture experiment at <br/>the College of Forestry, Kerala Agricultural University, Vellanikkara. Two provenances <br/>in the South India, Shimoga (Karnataka) and Marayoor (Kerala) were selected for this <br/>study. <br/>The results showed that the seedlings of Marayoor provenance were taller and <br/>having a higher collar diameter as compared to seedlings of Shimoga provenances. The <br/>stage of introduction of host did not have any effect on the growth of sandal seedlings. <br/>The seedlings where the host was introduced at the time of planting sandal had <br/>comparatively higher total chlorophyll in both the provenances as compared to <br/>seedlings where the host was introduced three and six months after planting sandal. <br/>Highest Nitrogen and Calcium content was observed in Marayoor provenance when the <br/>host was introduced at the time of planting sandal, whereas the P content was higher in <br/>both the provenances where the host was introduced at the time of planting sandal. <br/>The parameters like seedling height, collar diameter, number of leaves, leaf <br/>area, dry matter and chlorophyll content decreased due to water stress. <br/>The haustorial connections were found only at 300 days after planting sandal. <br/>The seedlings of Marayoor 'provenance recorded lower pre-dawn water potential as <br/>compared to seedlings of Shimoga provenance. Introducing host at the time of planting <br/>sandal or three months after planting sandal, in Marayoor provenance resulted in higher <br/>plant water potential. The leaf diffusive resistance was relatively high in Marayoor <br/>provenance when the host was introduced at the time of planting sandal. The leaf <br/>diffusive resistance was high in water stressed plants. <br/>As the haustorial connections were found only at 300 days after planting <br/>sandal, it can be concluded that the host need to be planted only six to nine months after <br/>planting sandal. This will avoid the early competition between sandal and host. Fast <br/>growing pot host during the early phase of its growth may suppress sandal by <br/>competition. <br/><br/>
