Processing enhanced the nutritional contents of Enterolobium cyclocarpum seeds
An experiment was carried out to determine the effects of different methods of processing on the nutritional and anti-nutritional contents of Enterolobium cyclocarpum seeds. The seeds were harvested and processed into four different treatments: T1 (raw), T2 (boiled), T3 (Soaked), and T4 (roasted). The seeds were later ground in hammer mill and taken to

The Impact of Nickel Mining on Soil Properties and Growth of Two Fast‐Growing Tropical Trees Species
Opencast nickel mining is common in natural forests of Indonesia. However, rehabilitation of postmining degraded land is difficult. We investigated the effect of opencast nickel mining on soil chemical properties and the growth of two fast‐growing tropical tree species, Falcataria moluccana and Albizia saman.

Extracción y caracterización del almidón de las semillas deEnterolobium cyclocarpumExtraction and characterization of starch fromEnterolobium cyclocarpumseeds [PDF]
Starch was extracted from the seeds of parota tree (Enterolobium cyclocarpum), partially characterized and compared with native corn starch. The starch yield obtained from decorticated seed was 750 g/kg, a medium purity (852 g/kg), a high content of proteins (35 g/kg), and amylopectin predominance (734 g/kg).

The Impact of Landscape Disturbance on Spatial Genetic Structure in the Guanacaste Tree, Enterolobium cyclocarpum (Fabaceae) [PDF]
We examined spatial genetic structure (SGS) in Enterolobium cyclocarpum (the Guanacaste tree), a dominant tree of Central American dry forests in 4 sites in Guanacaste Province, Costa Rica. In disturbed dry forest sites (e.g., pastures), E. cyclocarpum is primarily dispersed by cattle and horses, whose movements are restricted by pasture boundaries ...

Trained local people are capable to conduct bird monitoring and generates useful data for testing ecological hypotheses related to anthropogenic impact. Scientific endeavors based on community projects should develop training strategies aimed at enhancing monitors' skills in both bird identification and abundance recording.

Primates possess remarkably variable color vision, and the ecological and social factors shaping this variation remain heavily debated. Here, we examine opsin genes, feeding behaviors, and reflectance of dietary foliage of wild mantled howler monkeys (Alouatta palliata).
