Woody plants and medicinal plants possesss various macro
nutrients and micronutrients. These are essential to bring about the growth and
development of the plants. These because of their medicinal values are usedtraditionally to cure various diseases. We made a short synthesis of researches
undertaken on macro and micronutrients of woody species and medicinal plants.
Woody plants of Tamaulipan Thornscrubs in the semiarid
regions are of great economic importance for various uses such as timber for
furniture, fences, firewood and serve as sources of forage for wild animal
grazing. Few studies are undertaken on nutrient contents of woody plants. The
specific leaf area (SLA, leaf area per unit mass) appears to be correlated with
leaf nitrogen per unit dry mass, photosyntheis and dark respiration sites.
