Abstract
Survival and Growth rate of juveniles tree species in a tropical rainforest, West Sumatra, was measured for seven tree species over 13 year period in 1-ha plot of tropical rain forest in Ulu Gadut, West Sumatra, Indonesia. All individuals with dbh < 8 cm were sampled in 1989-1998 and 2002. The highest Survival rate of seedling was observed for Swintonia schwenkii and followed by Cleistanthus glandulosus and Gonystylus forbesii. The lowest survival rate was observed for Grewia florida. Relative Height Growth Rate (RHGR) were various between emergent, canopy and subcanopy tree. The highest RHGR was observed for emergent tree species, S. schwenkii. Whereas between canopy species, Hopea dryobalanoides was showed higher RHGR than Calophyllum soulattri. Furthermore, S. schwenkii as emergent tree species showed highest performance in Integrated Response Index (IRI). The relationship between their performances in the forest stand was also discussed in this paper. Key Words : Survival, RHGR, IRI, seedling, Ulu Gadut forest.
