Peri‐urban agroforestry for climate mitigation in West Africa: Structural diversity and functional traits as key drivers of carbon storage

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Peri‐urban areas in West Africa are expanding rapidly, often with limited planning and growing exposure to climate risks. Our study shows that agroforestry systems in these landscapes, especially diverse home gardens, can store substantial amounts of carbon when they include structurally complex stands and species with traits that favor biomass ...

Enhance food plant diversity conservation and use through greater coordination between genebanks and botanic gardens

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Food plants are vital to human and planetary health, but their diversity is threatened, making food security, nutrition, and environmental goals more difficult to achieve. Food plant diversity conservation, research, and education can be enhanced through collaboration between sectors, including genebanks and botanic gardens, which possess complementary

Food plant diversity in a rapidly changing world

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Diversity in food plants is essential to human and planetary health. On farms, in diets, and in many other areas of food systems, this diversity has undergone enormous change globally, including significant decline. We describe major trends in how food plant diversity has been changing, note the responses from conservation communities, highlight gaps ...
