Abstract

Photosynthesis is an important process having direct relevance on the growth and development of trees, and information generated on this process in sandalwood is limited. As reported in many crop, plants and trees growth performance can be effectively assessed with the help of the photosynthetic process. Hence, this process is measured to determine biomass production efficiency. There are studies on variation in sandalwood genotypes and associated hosts for photosynthetic traits. However, there are no reports on key factors governing photosynthesis. This chapter elucidates research developments in sandalwood photosynthesis.
