| Abstract/Description: | An experiment was carried out on nutrient dynamics and biochemical changes during decomposition of leaf litter of six selected forest species grown on Alfisol in GKVK, University of Agricultural Sciences, Bangalore, during Apri1 2010 to April 2011. Chemical characteristics and decomposition patterns of six forest tree species, leaf litter viz., Simaruba glauca (Simaruba), Tectona grandis (Teak wood), Ailanttius maiabarica, (White bean), Aphanamyxis polystachya (Amoora), Sweitenia macrophylla (Mahagany) and mixed leaf litter (Accacia. Eucalyptus, Bamboo) were analysed. The content of cellulose, hemi cellulose, polyphenol and lignin varied among species recording higher values. Results of the decomposition study using litter bag revealed that residual litter mass declined exponentially with time in case of Simaruba, Teak, White bean, Amoora, Sweitenia and Mixed leaf litter. In terms of nutrient release N & P recorded maximum release |
