Mature leaves of naturally occurring Jatropha curcas plants and soils samples were collected from four different populations to determine the soil characteristics, soil-available nutrients, and leaf nutrient contents. This study provides a reliable account of the endogenic concentrations of nutrients present in jatropha leaves. Soil manganese [diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid (DTPA)-Mn] was the only soil-available nutrient significantly correlated with its content in the plant. Relationships between soil characteristics, available nutrient in soil, and their content in plant leaves were also attempted.
