Abstract: | Photosynthetic characteristics, specific leaf mass, chlorophyll and total leaf nitrogen concentrations of four herbaceous
plants (Dicranopteris linearis, Hanguana malayana, Pentaphragma ellipticum, Tacca integrifolia) from nutrient-poor tropical
forests showed that all these plants were well-adapted to their natural growth environments. No photoinhibition was observed
even in the understorey plants.
