Khayanolides from African mahogany Khaya senegalensis (Meliaceae): A revision
Phytochemistry, 2009Five khayanolides (1-O-acetylkhayanolide B 1, khayanolide B 2, khayanolide E 3, 1-O-deacetylkhayanolide E 4, 6-dehydroxylkhayanolide E 5) were isolated from the stem bark of African mahogany Khaya senegalensis (Meliaceae). Their structures and absolute configurations were determined through extensive spectroscopic analyses including MS, NMR, and single-

In vitro propagation of the African mahogany Khaya senegalensis
New Forests, 2010A protocol was developed for shoot proliferation and plantlet formation of Khaya senegalensis, an important medicinal and timber plantation species introduced to Australia and southern Asia from western and central Africa. We assessed effects of the plant growth regulators, benzyladenine, kinetin, naphthalene acetic acid and gibberellic acid, on shoot ...

New Forests, 2014
Regeneration to ensure sustainable production and conservation of mahogany species globally is considered very important to foresters, investors in plantation, conservationists and timber industries worldwide. Natural regeneration of the mahoganies has been found to be far less than the rate of exploitation hence strong efforts are being made to ...

Environment, Development and Sustainability, 2012
When exploiting forest resources, the resource use must be sustainable if its use is to support its function in the natural ecosystem. The African mahogany, a prized timber species, is widely exploited, raising policy concerns about the management of forest resources to meet the social, economic, and ecological needs of present and future gen- erations.

Transpiration and growth of young African mahogany plants subject to different water regimes
International Journal of Biometeorology, 2019Timber production has been prominent in the Brazil scenario to minimize deforestation. Thus, technical information is necessary to define the productive process of the African mahogany in the Midwest region of Brazil, especially with regard to its hydric parameters.

Properties of African Mahogany Wood Commercially Available in the United States
Forest Products JournalAbstract The wood of African mahogany (Khaya spp.) is known for its high quality and similarity to the more expensive Brazilian mahogany (Swietenia macrophylla King). Interest in African mahogany has been increasing because of the reduced availability of native Brazilian mahogany, which has become illegal to harvest. Most African mahogany comes

Micropropagation of Khaya senegalensis, an african mahogany from dry tropical zones
2003An in vitro cloning protocol was set up on seedlings of Khaya senegalensis then adapted to more mature plants. In vitro shoot multiplication was conducted by using a culture medium rich in mineral salts (MS medium) in the presence of IBA 0.26 [mu]M-added BAP 2.2 [mu]M. The rooting of microcuttings was favoured by a less concentrated medium (MS/2) and a
