Forest tree leaves (12 different species) of semi hilly arid region of Punjab State were collected at 30-day interval throughout the year to assess the seasonal variations in tannin profile. Tannins were extracted and fractionated from fat free samples and data were analyzed statistically by 12×12 factorial design. The leaves of Anogeissus latifolia had the highest (p<0.05) concentration of tot...
