Abstract
Root exudates were obtained from three mangrove species, viz. Bruguiera gymnorrhiza, Excoecaria agallocha , and Heritiera fomes. Spot tests revealed the presence of, presumably, phenolic compounds in the exudates. Paper chromatography revealed two spots each for B. gymnorrhiza and H. fomes and a single spot for E. agallocha. GC-MS analysis suggested the presence of aminopyrine, palmitic acid, stearic acid, di- n -propyl ether, and 2,5-anhydrogluconic acid in B. gymnorrhiza exudates, aminopyrine and palmitic acid in E. agallocha exudates, and aminopyrine, palmitic acid, and 2,5-anhydrogluconic acid in H. fomes exudates.
