“…The progenies, specifically FCRITB03, FCRITB10, FCRITB16, and FCRITB17 displayed significantly higher measurements in various biometric characteristics including height, basal diameter, leaf length, leaf width, and leaf area. The outcomes are consistent with Neolamarckia cadamba, Casuarina clones, Ailanthus excelsa, Santalum album, Dalbergia sissoo, Pongamia pinnata, Acacia species, Salix species, Aquilaria malaccensis, Melia azedarach, Leucaena leucocephala, and Toona ciliata [7,9,11,[23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32]. Furthermore, the comparable height observed in FCRITB16 and FCRITB17 can be attributed to the similarity in weather parameters, with both provincesprovinces experiencing an average temperature of 17.3 • C and annual rainfall of 2036 mm.…”

In this study, an extensive exploration survey of wild progeny was conducted which yielded 18 candidate plus trees (CPTs) of Terminalia bellerica. Seeds of these CPTs were collected from diverse locations between 10°54′ and 28°07′ E longitude, and 76°27′ and 95°32′ N latitude, covering 18 different locations across 5 states of the Indian subcontinent. The objective of the progeny trial was to assess genetic associations and variability in growth and physio-chemical characteristics. Significant variations (p < 0.05) were observed among the growth traits, encompassing plant height, basal diameter, girth at breast height and volume, as well as physio-chemical characteristics such as leaf length, width, area and chlorophyll content, carotenoids, and protein in the progeny trial. Broad-sense heritability (h2b) estimates were consistently high, exceeding 80% for all growth and physiological related traits under investigation except for plant height, leaf length, and girth at breast height. A correlation study revealed that selecting based on plant height, leaf area, and girth at breast height effectively enhances T. bellerica volume. A moderate genetic advance in percent of the mean (GAM) was observed for most traits, except leaf length, leaf width, girth at breast height, and plant height. Across all 13 traits, phenotypic coefficient of variation (PCV) surpassed genotypic coefficient of variation (GCV). Utilizing principal component analysis (PCA) and dendrogram construction categorized the genotypes into seven distinct groups. In conclusion, the study has demonstrated that targeting girth at breast height and plant height would be a highly effective strategy for the establishment of elite seedling nurseries and clonal seed nurseries for varietal and hybridization programs in the future.

“…Many other research and production purpose for the culture or micropropagation of sandalwood uses NaOCl as the sterilization agent in the process. General techniques of sandalwood sterilization are advised to use NaOCl for the surface sterilization of the explant (Krishnakumar et al, 2018;Warakagoda et al, 2013). For the optimum dosage used in the sterilization, the experiment that we conducted showed that the dosage is 15% (v/v) and 10% (v/v) sourced from the bleach Bayclin® (which contains NaOCl 5,25%).…”

Previous studies showed that the optimum dosage of NaOCl used for sterilization purposes was 0.01% of pure NaOCl (Krishnakumar et al, 2018), or if sourced from a commercial bleach (such as Bayclin® or Chlorox® which generally contain 5,25% of NaOCl) the usual dosage is 15% (v/v) (Warakagoda et al, 2013).…”

Sandalwood (Santalum album) and Teak (Tectona grandis) are essential wood sources for furniture. Sustainable micropropagation methods can benefit wood availability. This study evaluates NaOCl and Povidone-iodine effects, immersion duration, and concentrations on teak and sandalwood micropropagation. Teak is treated with 10% & 15% NaOCl and 10% & 15% Povidone-iodine. No significant difference was observed between teak treatments; however, povidone-iodine shows potential as an effective teak sterilizing agent. Sandalwood's best sterilization: NaOCl at 10% & 15%.

Lepidopterans spend longer on owers compared to Diptera and Hymenoptera(Herrera 1989), accounting for 98% of nocturnal pollination only by adult moths and their role is understudied (Waring and Townsend, 2017;Macgregor et al, 2020).…”

The evergreen and perennial Royal tree, Santalum album L., is an eco-conservator because it houses a wide variety of organisms. One such group is moths. Intensive surveys were conducted in sandalwood plantations in south India to understand the diversity of moths supported by sandalwood. A total of 56 species of moths belonging to 15 families were found in sandalwood, and the record of 27 moths forms the first report on sandalwood. Out of 15 families, the family Erebidae is dominant with twenty-one species, followed by Geometridae with eight species and Psychidae with six species each. The remaining moths include three species each of Cossidae and Limacodidae; two species each of Crambidae, Eupterotidae, Lecithoceridae, Noctuidae and Tortricidae; and a single species in each of the remaining 5 families. Further, the pruned plantations showed a significantly negative impact on the diversity of moths and greatly influenced the level of their infestation on the trees. Implications for insect conservation: Our analysis provides an effective groundwork for addressing the principle of conservation for not only target insect species but also in general. Further, immediate action is specified for the protection of vegetation and proper maintenance of structural integrity of trees, which directly influences the distribution and habitats of insects.
