Abstract:The status of the wild population growth of Abies ziyuanensis is crucial for formulating population conserva- tion measures and biodiversity protection . In this study, we conducted field surveys on A. ziyuanensis populations in Nans- han National park in Hunan, using plot and quadrat sampling methods . we analyzed the quantity distribution,habitat char- acteristics,population composition, age structure, and height-diameter tree structure of the current populations . The results showed that the number of wild plants of A. ziyuanensis in Hunan Nanshan National park was 106 (excluding seedlings) . The altitude of its distribution area ranged from 1450—1900m, the soil was montane yellow-brown soil, the average an- nual temperature was 9. 5—14. 5 ℃ , the average annual rainfall was 1218—2018mm, and the average annual relative hu- midity was 79. 2%—85. 6% . The existing community structure was intact and shows clear tree, shrub and herb layers . The age structure showed some anomalies, and the height-diameter tree differences among different populations were signifi- cant (p<0. 05) . considering the issues of regeneration and breeding in the existing population, we propose conservation strategies for A. ziyuanensis from three aspects:increasing the population size, improving the community structure and age structure . The findings and conservation strategies for A. ziyuanensis can provide references for the protection of popula- tions in southern china .
