Species Diversity
No information is available on species diversity in neem. Studies on genetic variation or on
provenances have not been carried out in its native Indo-Southeastern Asian region and in countries
of information such as Africa. Neem was introduced in the past without any consideration to
seed-origins. Tree to tree and provenance variation both within a region and between different
regions, therefore, needs to be analyzed. Land races and taxonomic varieties of the species, where
they exist, must be identified, collected and evaluated.

A proper search and survey of wild distribution range of neem in specific regions of India (Deccan and
Siwaliks) and Burma (upper Irrawady valley) is required to be undertaken to confirm and map the
species wild range and to determine the extent and pattern of genetic variation present within it.
