| description | Air pollution is one of the killers of our age especially for the urban areas. Urban forestry which involves planting more trees has been considered as one of the prominent strategies to mitigate air pollution. Identification of trees tolerant to air pollution is important for plantation drives being organized across the country. The present study aimed to compare the air pollution tolerance potential of 46 tree species growing in Guru Nanak Dev University (GNDU) campus, Amritsar, using two indices, viz., Air Pollution Tolerance Index (APTI) and Anticipated Performance Index (API). APTI is based on four biochemical parameters, viz., relative water content, leaf extract pH, total chlorophyll, and ascorbic acid contents of leaf samples, whereas API takes into consideration morphological and socioeconomic values of plant species along with their APTI. Based on APTI values calculated for 46 tree species, only 2 tree species, viz.,
Psidium guajava
(46.26) and
Cassia fistula
(41.83), were found to be tolerant to air pollution, while 25 species showed intermediate tolerance. API scores revealed one tree species, namely,
P. guajava
, as an excellent performer, 8 species as very good performers, and 28 species as moderate to good performers against air pollution. In conclusion, tree species like
Alstonia scholaris
,
C. fistula
,
Ficus tsjakela
,
Grevillea robusta
,
Kigelia africana
,
Mangifera indica
,
Melia azedarach
,
P. guajava
,
Pongamia pinnata
,
Pterospermum acerifolium
,
Putranjiva roxburghii
,
Syzygium cumini
,
Terminalia arjuna
, and
Toona ciliata
can be considered as most desirable for plantations in areas around GNDU campus. |
