| description | Tension wood is abnormal wood compared to normal wood. This research
aimed to study the formation of the tension wood between the low density
and medium density hardwoods in tropical rainforest species. This study was
conducted at the Ayer Hitam Forest Reserved Forest, Puchong, Malaysia.
The selected species for low density species is Jelutong (Dyera Costulata)
and medium density is Kasai (Pometia Pinnata). The trees selected is
artificially inclined for 30 ,60 and 120 days.The cambial marking was applied
to the all selected tress using high DC pulse. The density, time taken, and the
inclined angle is the major factor affecting the tension wood. The results
showing there is varies of G-layers formed on the both species in the
different time period. The conclusion is the Jelutong is easily formed
compared to Kasai based on the anatomical characteristics. |
