Identification of drought-induced genes in giant leucaena (Leucaena leucocephala subsp. glabrata)

Trees - Structure and Function, 2018
A number of drought-induced genes have been identified from giant leucaena. Leucaena leucocephala subspecies glabrata (leucaena), which is also known as ‘giant leucaena’, is a multipurpose tree legume that can be grown and maintained as a woody tree for wood and paper pulp production, or as a shrubby legume through repeated harvest of foliage for use ...

Leucaena as a Protein Source [PDF]

, 1984
The ubiquitous weedy form of Leucaena leucocephala (Lam.) de Wit is capable of producing 1,000-2,000 kg/ha/yr of good quality protein. Its production capacity responds to elevation, rainfall, and soil type in addition to imposed management practices. The cultivars 'El Salvador' and 'Peru' produce 1,000-4,000 kg/ha/yr under similar treatments.

The value of Leucaena leucocephala bark in leucaena—grass hay diets for Thai goats

Tropical Animal Health and Production, 2010
The study assessed the value of Leucaena leucocephala bark in leucaena-grass hay diets fed to Thai goats. Thai goats in metabolism pens were fed diets containing leucaena leaf (55%) + pangola grass hay (hay, 45%); leucaena leaf (48%) + leucaena bark (9%) + hay (43%); leucaena bark (57%) + hay (43%); and hay only. Feed percentages are expressed on a dry
