Variation in Wood Structure of Acacia senegal (L.) Willd Under Different Rainfall Levels in Western Sudan

ElAmin EE, Ballal ME and Mahmoud AE

The aim of this study was to examine the effect of rainfall on wood anatomical structures of Acacia senegal (L.) Willd located in the sandy soil. Samples of wood were collected from sites representing three rainfall (low, medium and high) conditions throughout the gum belt of North, West Kordofan States. Microscopic slides of wood samples were prepared to measure the size and percentage of wood cells. Analysis of variance was used to determine the differences in wood cells from different sites affected by rainfall. The differences in rainfall isohyets in sandy soil did not significantly affect the wood anatomical structures.
