The palm Elaeis oleifera from Taisha was first described in 1986, but remains a valuable genetic resource to be evaluated, as it may be important for obtaining high-yielding hybrid genotypes and good-quality oil.

We characterized the composition and the temporal variations of the arthropods community visiting female and male inflorescences of the palm Phytelephas aequatorialis. We report 59 morphospecies dominated by three beetle families: Staphylinidae, Nitidulidae, and Curculionidae and 16 pollinator candidates among which nine visited both inflorescence ...

Food tree species selection for nutrition‐sensitive forest landscape restoration in Burkina Faso
Modern food systems push agriculture to focus on a small number of commercial crops, while there is a very large diversity of untapped edible plants that could be used to address food security and nutrition. Poor and monotonous diets are closely linked to the complex burden of multiple forms of malnutrition and dietary risk.

Pest categorisation of Aonidiella orientalis
Abstract The EFSA Panel on Plant Health performed a pest categorisation of Aonidiella orientalis (Hemiptera: Diaspididae), the oriental scale, for the EU. A. orientalis is a species mostly occurring in tropical and subtropical areas. It is not listed in Annex II of Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/2072.

Basal stem rot of oil palm revisited
Frond collapse in Oil Palm caused by stem rot Abstract Basal stem rot caused by Ganoderma boninense is the single major disease to affect oil palms in South Asia and Oceania. Although first described in commercial plantations some 90 years ago it remains a major constraint to oil palm planting, with disease occurence increasing with succesive plantings.

Can omic tools help generate alternative newer sources of edible seed oil?
Abstract There are three pathways for triacylglycerol (TAG) biosynthesis: De novo TAG biosynthesis, phosphatidylcholine‐derived biosynthesis, and cytosolic TAG biosynthesis. Variability in fatty acid composition is mainly associated with phosphatidylcholine‐derived TAG pathway. Mobilization of TAG‐formed through cytosolic pathway into lipid droplets is
