Plant gums are bio-organic substances that are derived from the barks of trees. They are biodegradable and non-adverse complex polysaccharides that have been gaining usage in recent years due to a number of advantages they contribute to various applications. In this study, gum was collected from and trees, then dried and powdered. Characterizations of gum polysaccharides were performed using TLC, GC-MS, NMR, etc., and sugar molecules such as glucose and xylose were found to be present. Effects of the gums on growth were observed through root growth, shoot growth, and biomass content. The exposure of the seeds to the plant gums led to bio stimulation in the growth of the plants. Poor quality soil was exposed to the gum polysaccharide, where the polysaccharide was found to improve soil quality, which was observed through soil analysis and SEM analysis of soil porosity and structure. Furthermore, the plant gums were also found to have bio-pesticidal activity against mealybugs, which showed certain interstitial damage evident through histopathological analysis.
植物胶是从树皮中提取的生物有机物质。它们是可生物降解的非不利的复杂多糖，由于它们对各种应用的许多优点，近年来越来越受到关注。在这项研究中，从 和 树中采集了胶，然后干燥并粉碎。使用 TLC、GC-MS、NMR 等方法对胶多糖进行了表征，发现存在葡萄糖和木糖等糖分子。通过根生长、芽生长和生物量含量观察了胶对 生长的影响。种子暴露于植物胶中会导致植物生长的生物刺激。将胶多糖暴露于劣质土壤中，发现多糖可改善土壤质量，通过土壤分析和土壤孔隙度和结构的 SEM 分析观察到了这一点。此外，还发现植物胶对粉蚧具有生物杀虫活性，通过组织病理学分析显示出对间质的一定损伤。
