Afrotropical cities are growing rapidly but how this impacts biodiversity is largely unclear. Our study on São Tomé Island, Central Africa, reveals that the urban tree assemblage is impoverished and dominated by introduced species, while the natural forest is essential for the protection of native and endemic species.

Somatic embryogenesis from zygotic embryos and thin cell layers (TCLs) of Brazilian oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Elaeis oleifera) [PDF]
Oil palm hybrid BRS Manicoré is important for plantations in the north of Brazil, as it is resistant to fatal yellowing and is compact. Seed germination is slow and reduced, so somatic embryogenesis is a promising alternative for its propagation. Two kinds of starting explants were used: Zygotic embryos (ZE) and thin cell layers (TCL) from the base of ...

Abstract Foraging for wild resources links urban citizens to nature and biodiversity while providing resources important for local livelihoods and culture. However, the abundance and distributional (in)equity of forageable urban tree resources have rarely been examined.

Evaluation of fatty acid compositions, iodine value, carotene content, height and height increment of oil palm interspecific hybrid (Elaeis guineensis x Elaeis oleifera) / Alyasa Jais [PDF]
Malaysia’s oil palm industries are bloomed with the implementation of new technologies and the availability of promising planting material. Producing of the promising planting materials normally has pushed the oil palm breeders to fit all great ...

A Perennial Green Revolution to address 21st‐century food insecurity and malnutrition
Abstract Farming practices of the past century have dramatically increased annual crop yields to unprecedented levels but have consequentially created increasing ecological and public health concerns, posing a long‐term threat to global food security. Soil tillage and chemical inputs perpetuate soil erosion, biodiversity loss, wetlands eutrophication ...

Medicinal plants used for wound healing in Lubumbashi have yet to be discovered. Inventory or profile of their taxa has yet to be established. The present study was carried out to survey the plants used in traditional medicine in Lubumbashi to treat wounds and to define their ethnomedical characteristics.

Aiming to obtain plantlets regeneration of "caiaué" (Elaeis oleifera) plants and of their hybrid with African oil palm plants (Elaeis guineensis) via somatic embryogenesis, zygotic embyos were inoculated into modified Murashige & Skoog 1962 (MS ...
