In this article we will discuss about the tests for detection of proteins and amino acids in plants with the help of experiments. Proteins and other elated nitrogenous compounds are the principle constituents of protoplasm and are directly involved in all the physiological processes taking place in the living cells. Proteins of all kinds are synthesized from amino acids, which [...]
The following points highlight the five methods of sampling plant communities. The methods are: 1. Transect Method 2. Bisect 3. Trisect 4. Ring Counts 5. Quadrat Method. 1. Transect Method: When the vegetation is to be studied along an environmental gradient or eco-tone (e.g. tropical to temperate, high or low rainfall areas or precipitation gradient, adjacent areas with different types [...]
In this article we will discuss about the study of community structure. A "vegetation is the sum total of plants covering an area" (Weaver and Clements, 1966) which generally consists of a number of communities. According to Benton and Werner (1974) "a biological community consists of all the organisms living together in an interrelated fashion in a given environment". Biological [...]
