Comparative Responses of Some Fuel Wood Trees at Early Seedling Stage
Abstract: Seedling of leguminous fuel wood trees (Bauhinia variegata, Delonix regia, Peltophorum pterocarpum, Samanea saman, Saraca indica) were analyzed at different developmental stages for biochemical constituents potentially related to fast-growing habit in order to identify some markers. Protein content of leaves and stem tissue was higher in Bauhinia variegata, particularly at later stages. Total amino acid level, however, did not show much difference between growing species. Total carbohydrate content (both soluble …
