Description:

The ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase (RuBPC) activity, protein content and net photosynthetic rate (P^) were estimated at monthly intervals from September 1990 to August 1991 in Chukrasia íabularis, Dolichandrom atrovirens, Eugenia jambolana, Gmelina arborea, Lamea coromandelica, Terminalia arjuna and Terminalia bellehca. The leaves of all these tree species showed significantly higher RuBPC activity during summer than in winter, when it was expressed on the basis of chlorophyll (Chl) content. RuBPC exhibited seasonal variations in its activity and these differed from one tree species to the other. When expressed on the basis of leaf area, the activity of RuBPC correlated with protein content, but not with P^.
