Abstract

This Paper reports the quantitative estimation of some metabolites and enzymes in insect induced leaf galls of Ficus religiosa. The parameters assayed were total soluble sugar, reducing sugar, starch a-amylase activity and invertase activity compared to normal tissues. Galls showed significantly higher content of total soluble sugar, reducing sugar, starch a-amylase activity and invertase enzymes activity and lower content of reducing sugar.
