Alternatives to deforestation: Steps towards sustainable use of the Amazon rain forest
Journal ArticleDOI
Ecology of a key African multipurpose tree species, Balanites aegyptiaca (Balanitaceae): the state-of-knowledge
TL;DR: Practical action in terms of provenance trials, which would lead to improved understanding of the potential of the species as a resource, is outlined and suggestions are made for positive management measures and planting initiatives.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ecology of a miombo fruit tree: Uapaca kirkiana (Euphorbiaceae)
TL;DR: Uapaca kirkiana is reported from most countries within the Zambezian centre of endemism and adjacent transitional phytochoria, and within the natural range, occurrence is related to a unimodal rainfall regime with an annual range of 500–1400 mm.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fruit, seed and seedling variation in Uapaca kirkiana from natural populations in Malawi
TL;DR: Variations in the traits reported emphasize the importance of selecting suitable seed sources before commencing domestication programmes, and suggest useful gains might be obtained through a breeding programme following careful provenance selection.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multiple-nearest-tree sampling in an ecological survey of Afromontane catchment forest
TL;DR: It is concluded that for Afromontane rain forest at least 15 trees are desirable as the criterion for samples defined by number of observations, and the multiple-nearest-tree technique is advocated as a tool for forest reconnaissance in the conservation context.
