Abstract

A study of the isoenzyme pattern in respect of peroxidase malate dehydrogenase and estarase in the fully expanded green healthy leaves of different types of Sandal (Santalum album Linn.) plants showing variation in their leaf shape (ovate,lanceolate,linear and elliptic) has shown that (I) characteristic differences exist between the sandal leaf types in their pattern of isoenzymes of peroxidase and malate dehydrogenase at vegetative as well as flowering stages, (II) in the sandal plants with big ovate leaves, three sub-types exist, and (III) the sandal plants with normal ovate wavy and normal ovate non-wavy leaves are genetically very close.

Abstract

Twenty five best performing clones of Eucalyptus tereticornis were planted in July 1998 at Nagaroor nursery of IWST, Bangalore. By chemical examination of the leaves obtained from three year old trees for their oil content and chemical constituents, it was found that the leaf sample from one particular clone (C-4) contained 2.8 - 2.9 percent of oil and 82- 84.1 percent of cineole. Considering the remarkable adaptability, rapid growth of E.tereticornis and wide applications of cineole-rich Eucalyptus oil in pharmaceutical products - the reported clone would be of special interest both for propagation and utility in the pharmaceutical field.
