Yellow achu-soup, an emulsion of red palm oil and water is a traditional delicacy in the grass field of Cameroon, which faces a problem of its stability due to the quality of the emulsifier used to emulsify and stabilize it. This study was designed for the optimization of the production of an emulsifier ( Nikki) from Musa paradisiaca (Plantain) Peels enriched with Ficus Peels as a traditional food salt for the emulsification and stabilisation of yellow achu-soup. A fact...

Lianas plant species are abundant, diverse and essential component in tropical forests with impacts in the forest dynamics, through competitions for resources with attacked trees. Although lianas species are essential to chimpanzees, presence in chimpanzee habitats can negatively distress the availability and accessibility of tree food resources by inhibiting tree growth and fruiting capacity. However, the impacts of lianas to chimpanzee food trees abundance in Gombe National Park, western Tanza...

Leaf blight of gladiolus caused by Botrytis gladiolorum is widely distributed as a major disease in gladiolus growing districts of Bangladesh where farmers usually used fungicides to manage diseases. Nowadays, it is very important to find out the more effective fungicides against Botrytis gladiolorum (Bg). An experiment was conducted at the Mycology laboratory, Department of Plant Pathology, Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University, Dhaka, Bangladesh to find out the efficacy of select...

Dandelion ( Taraxacum mongolicum Hand.-Mazz.) is rich in phenolic acids and has become popular in vegetable and medicine in China. Growing dandelion in saline-alkali land is considered to be an efficient strategy for the development of saline-alkali land. In order to screen candidate genes related to phenolic acids synthesis under saline stress, we evaluated phenolic acids accumulation from dandelion resource of A ( T. mongolicum cv. dandelion cultivar “Binpu 2”) and B ( T. mongoli...

Pollen is a resistance structure whose shape, size, and ornaments together make up a diagnostic method for species identification, comparable to a fingerprint. Traditional methods for cleaning this grain, such as acetolysis, not only seriously damage the pollen material of various botanical groups, but its use requires access to expensive reagents and equipment. Therefore, a low-cost proposal is presented for the fixation of fresh pollen in the field, whose preparations are suitable for depositi...

An experiment was carried out at Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University, Dhaka, Bangladesh during the period from March to July 2014. Plants were grown in the rain protected polyethylene shelter or shed to avoid rain under natural conditions in the earthen pots. The experiment was conducted on the leaf traits of aus rice varieties in various soil moisture levels in three rice genotypes as BRRI dhan55 (V1), BR6976-2B-15 (V2) and tolerant check Hashikalmi (V3) and seven water stress was imposed as ...

Heritiera fomes Buch-Ham and Excoecaria agallocha L. are two major mangroves of the Sundarban mangrove forest. Among them, Heritiera fomes Buch-Ham is a less salt-tolerant species than E. agallocha, which is a salt-tolerant species but not extremely salt-tolerant. The flowering and fruiting behavior, seed germination, and seedling survival rate of Heritiera fomes Buch-Ham and Excoecaria agallocha L. were studied in three different saline zones viz. Oligo...

Early field growth performances of four Eucalyptus urophylla × Eucalyptus grandis clones (18 - 147, 18 - 170, 18 - 228 and 18 - 50) produced by two different techniques of propagation by rooted cuttings were compared. The results obtained showed that height growth did not differ significantly up to 18 months between plants derived from indicate rooted cuttings produced from coppicing stumps and those issued from intensively managed container-grown stock plants, the four clones comb...

The study was aimed at assessing the floral composition of the Mount Bamboutos landscape. A literature search was used to gather information about plants found in Mount Bamboutos. For field data collection, forest patches found along a proposed two-line transect of 12 km each were explored for the collection and identification of plant specimens. A total of 332 species of plants (herbs, shrubs, trees, lianas, climbers and epiphytes) were identified belonging to 89 families. Out of these, the Rub...

In Uganda, sorghum constitutes the second most widely grown cereal according to the latest statistics from the country’s statistics body, the Uganda Bureau of Statistics. This notwithstanding, there has been, in the context of Uganda, very little research and published literature on its potential to sequester carbon. There is no sufficient data on the exact levels of carbon sequestered by this sorghum/legume intercropping system, which is widespread as a technology within Uganda’s smallholder so...
