Anatomical properties of 5 and 10 years old Sentang (Azadirachta excelsa) / Martini Mohamad

A study on the tissue proportion s and fiber morphology of 5 and 10 year old Sentang was carried out. The source of material were harvested at Jalan Kampung Jawa, FRIM. Disks were taken from 3 sampling height and were sampled along their radial variation of heartwood at every sampling height. Proced...
