Preference and In Vitro Digestibility of Leaves of Woody Plants by Sheep in the Northern Sudanian Zone

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, Volume 110, Issue 2, Page 200-212, March 2026.
ABSTRACT In West Africa, trees and shrubs are important for feeding ruminant livestock during the dry season. This study aimed to determine the in vitro digestibility of organic matter from eight woody species using a gas test with and without the addition of polyethylene glycol (PEG), and evaluate their preference by sheep using a cafeteria test ...

Invasive alien woody plants of the Orange Free State

Bothalia: African Biodiversity & Conservation, 1991
The frequency and abundance of invasive alien woody plants were recorded along roadsides and at watercourse crossings in 66% (151/230) of the quarter degree squares in the study area. The survey yielded 64 species of which the most prominent (in order of

Uncovering the Key Factors Influencing Phytochemical and Phytopharmacological Properties During Medicinal Plant Processing

eFood, Volume 7, Issue 1, February 2026.
From farm to pharma, this review details the engineering of quality in medicinal plants through a science‐driven approach: it first elucidates how genetic and environmental factors inscribe the plant's phytochemical and phytopharmacological profile before harvest, and then dissects the postharvest techniques and technologies—chemical and thermal pre ...

Are range limits concordant with climatic niche requirements in alien plants? Leguminous invasive plants as case study, along a latitudinal gradient, central Chile [PDF]

NeoBiota
How do species reach the limits of their distribution and what prevents their continued expansion beyond these ranges? Exotic plant species represent a natural experiment to answer these questions. If climate is the limiting factor, then one would expect

Assessing the success of a horizon scanning approach in predicting invasive non‐native species arrival

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 1, January 2026.
We conclude that horizon scanning provides a rapid, affordable and successful mechanism to predict the arrival of high‐risk INNS. We highlight the importance of citizen science, including biological recording, and of local expertise for detecting and documenting arrival of INNS.
