Subscribe/Renew Journal
Micronutrients (Cu, Fe and Zn) content in different components of seedlings, saplings and trees were analyzed for field grown Bruguiera parviflora at Kuala Selangor Nature Park mangrove forest, Malaysia. A relatively higher copper content of 17.87 μg g-1 was observed in stems of seedlings followed by branches and ischolar_mains of saplings and trees. Comparatively higher iron content of 5263.47- 6310.40 μg g-1 was found in ischolar_mains of seedlings, saplings and trees. While, higher zinc content of 35.47 μg g-1 and 29.60 μg g-1 were detected in leaves of seedlings and ischolar_mains of saplings, respectively. Copper, iron and zinc content showed different distributional trends among seedling and tree components, while iron and zinc showed similar trend in saplings components.
