Leveraging target enrichment and genome skimming (Hyb-Seq) of herbarium collections to unlock timber DNA barcoding. [PDF]

Appl Plant Sci
Abstract Premise DNA barcoding for timber species identification requires comprehensive reference datasets, informative DNA barcodes, and cost‐effective protocols. We developed a workflow leveraging Hyb‐Seq (target capture sequencing and genome skimming) to address these challenges, and we tested it on four genera from the mahogany family (Meliaceae ...

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

J Anim Physiol Anim Nutr (Berl)
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 ...

Land-Use Effects on Melliferous Woody Flora in Sudanian Agroforestry Parkland and Protected Area of West Africa. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
This study assessed how land use types influence the diversity, structure, and temporal dynamics of melliferous woody species and honeybee (Apis mellifera) foraging in a sudanian landscape of southwestern Burkina Faso. Fallow land and protected area supported higher species richness and distinct community composition compared with farmland, while ...
