Biomass and carbon allocation in different parts of agroforestry tree species [1]

Additional image:: 

The assessment of carbon storage potential has been difficult due to the lack of information on biomass compartmentation and carbon allocation in different species. For most of the species used for afforestation/reforestation, only the above ground biomass potentials are known but to have a picture of carbon storage potential species, the below ground biomass pattern are equally important.
