Elemental composition of the litter under deodar, chir and oak forests of Mussoorie Himalayas were characterised with soil properties and mean annual increments of the species. The study revealed that the forests under deodar had higher M.A.I. associated with higher content of Mn, Zn. Mg, Cu and Fe in their soils in comparison to the forests under chir and oak.

Elemental composition of the litter under deodar, chir and oak forests of Mussoorie Himalayas were characterised with soil properties and mean annual increments of the species. The study revealed that the forests under deodar had higher M.A.I. associated with higher content of Mn, Zn. Mg, Cu and Fe in their soils in comparison to the forests under chir and oak.
