Abstract
A significant reduction in chlorophyll ‘a’, ‘b’ and carotenoid of all the selected trees were observed in polluted site as compared to their control site. There was maximum (30.99%) reduction in chlorophyll ‘a’ on the leaves of Psidium guajava L. and minimum (6.52%) on Eucalyptus citriodora Hook. while maximum chlorophyll ‘b’ contents (43.43%) was depleted in Syzygiun cumini L. and minimum (11.11%) in Eucalyptus citriodora Hook..
