and Thespesia populnea was noted when zinc concentration was increased. A significant reduction (p<0.05) in seed

in seed germination of P. pterocarpum was found with 1251lg ml' zinc treatment.The seedling length and seedling dry
weight ofA. lebbeck was significantly (p<0.05) reduced with 50llg ml' and751lg ml' treatment of zinc respectively.
