In vitro shoot multiplication and rooting from seedling explants of Pterocarpus angolensis in Zambia
Item type: Journal Article • Journal: The Southern African Forestry Journal • Authors: Exildah Chisha-Kasumu AdamH. Price Steve WoodwardPterocarpus angolensis is a savanna tree species growing mostly in the southern part of Africa. Exploitation for its medicinal and commercial uses has led to diminishing of wild populations. Developing reliable in vitro protocols for propagation would enable mass production... -
Vegetative propagation of twelve fodder tree species indigenous to the Sahel, West Africa
Item type: Journal Article • Journal: Southern Forests: a Journal of Forest Science • Authors: Catherine Ky-Dembele --- World Agroforestry Centre, Mali Jules Bayala --- World Agroforestry Centre, Mali Antoine Kalinganire --- World Agroforestry Centre, Mali Fatoumata Tata Traoré --- World Agroforestry Centre, Mali Bréhima Koné --- World Agroforestry Centre, Mali Alain Olivier --- Département de phytologie, CanadaIn the Sahel region, many woody species are used as fodder because of their high nitrogen content, especially during the dry season, in contrast to grasses and crop residues. Unfortunately, this resource is being threatened by regular pruning, increasing livestock... -

Advances in mini-cutting of Libidibia ferrea: an integrated approach with mini-stump management and growth regulator
Item type: Journal Article • Journal: Southern Forests: a Journal of Forest Science • Authors: Igor de Souza Bitú --- Federal Rural University of Pernambuco, Brazil Erika Rayra Lima Nonato --- Federal Rural University of Pernambuco, Brazil Moema Barbosa de Sousa --- Federal Rural University of Pernambuco, Brazil Paulo César da Silva Santos --- Federal Rural University of Pernambuco, Brazil Carlos Luiz da Silva --- Federal Rural University of Pernambuco, Brazil Eliane Cristina Sampaio de Freitas --- Federal Rural University of Pernambuco, Brazil Ricardo Gallo --- Federal Rural University of Pernambuco, BrazilVegetative propagation plays a crucial role in biodiversity conservation and the promotion of sustainable forestry practices, especially for species with difficulties in seed germination due to dormancy and low germination rates. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate mini-stump management techniques...
