Abstract: The Biochemical constituents such as protein, carbohydrate and lipid of three different species of Gracilaria viz: G.edulis, G.corticata and G.crassa were analysed and compared with the growth of the plant in different months. Carbohydrate content showed significant positive correlation with the growth (g/m2) of the plant but a reciprocal relationship was obtained with protein and lipid content in different species of Gracilaria. The relationship between the size and the biomass could be able to establish the recruitment pattern of the plants in different period in G.edulis and G.corticata. The carbohydrate content was found to be more in G.edulis, whereas the protein content was dominant in G.corticala.
