The category: malaria, fever and headache had the highest 0.82 ICF. Woody species diversity and ground layervegetation cover were studied in plantations ofPinus patula, Cupressus lusitanica,Grevillea robusta, and Juniperusprocera, and in surrounding natural forests inWondo Genet, Ethiopia. 16. Cordia africana is a highly-valued timber tree species that is quite dominant in riparian habitat, native to several countries in Africa and the Arabian Peninsula. The plant species were distributed among 23 families and 33 genera. In contrast, organic C content Philip, M.S. The present study aimed to evaluate in vivo antimalarial effects of leaf extracts and solvent fractions of Cordia africana on Plasmodium berghei-infected mice. Nitrogen and C were well correlated (r It will also be used as the basis of the Global Tree Assessment, which aims to assess the conservation status of all of the world’s tree species by 2020. Moreover, the farmers plant at least three species of shade tree for taking an advantage of other products that include fruit, firewood, timber, and to have different nutrient inputs from the decomposition of litter fall. Deforested landscapes alter the temperature regime of an area through reradiating the sun's heat energy from the bare landscapes, thus resulting in complicated and often devastating local climatic conditions. Single- or double-exponential decay or quadratic functions were fitted to describe patterns of decay or release of various leaf constituents. Cordia africana.

Genetic variation, AFLP, cpSSR, cordia africana. Ethnobotanical information was collected through focus group discussions, observations, interviews, and preference ranking. 14. Therefore, future studies need to address the biology and distribution of P. bannensis on C. africana in order to provide management options. Sweet gum saplings growing in dense stands of similar-sized plants may surmount their neighbors by allocating relatively more wood to height growth than to girth increment. Evaluating morphometric parameters of the crown, we found significant differences among the Eucalyptus forests of different ages. is widely used for traditional management of malaria by local people in different parts of Ethiopia. At farm level, 20 plots of 100 m x 100 m each and at homestead level, 20 plots each having an area of 10 m x 10 m each were selected using simple random sampling technique. Most of the plants (78.7%) were reportedly used to treat human diseases. shade) irrespective of nitrogen. In addition, the highest leaf internal For the interviews, 72 knowledgeable informants were sampled using purposive sampling method. Within most provenances all ratios were significantly varied between forest and farmland grown trees in which forest trees were superior in bole length and total tree height with smaller crown size. Out of the total plant species This suggests that indigenous tree species with high concentrations of tannins, supposedly considered to be of ‘poor quality’, might still be quite useful as an organic input for improving soil fertility and productivity in the tropics. Although Cordia is a large genus of about 250 species, only five are found in South Africa. Ethiopia using ethnobotonical inventory, semi-structured questionnaires, Bark greyish-brown to dark ... Ethiopia. Cordia africana (Lam.) There was nosignificant variation in understory woodyspecies richness among plantations. Nearly 58 percent of all tree species are single country-endemics. preservation, sustainability, popularization, education and environmental The following categories are distinguished: plants used for house building and household utensils, plants used for clothing, magical plants, famine plants, medicinal plants, and ritual plants. In order to remedy this situation, There is a relationship between the total biomass of leaves, between leaf area and between sapwood area, with diameter at breast height (DBH) and height of trees in different thirds of the crown in different aged Eucalyptus plantations. A total of 198 plant species which belongs to Thirty-seven percent of the wild edible plants were used as medicine and 23.6% were used for other functions. 15. The acute toxicity test of the plant extract revealed that the medium lethal dose is higher than 2000 mg/kg. Plants used in material culture in Oromo community, Jimma, Southwest Oromia, Ethiopia, Some Common Medicinal and Poisonous Plants Used in Ethiopian Folk Medicine, TREES MANAGEMENT AND LIVELIHOODS IN GEDEO'S AGROFORESTS, ETHIOPIA. This paper presents the knowledge on wild/semi-wild edible plant species (WEPS) of Konso ethnic community of southern Ethiopia. We concluded that examining the soil respiration kinetics could provide vital information on nutritional status of micro-organisms under different land-uses and on potential availability of nutrients to plants. There was no difference between wild edible plants growth forms reported (Pearson's Chi-square test (d.f. (Boraginacea) in Ethiopia. The mismanagement together with loss of habitat showed that ethnomedicinal plant species used by healers are under serious threat which indicates the need for urgent attention towards their documentation, conservation and sustainable utilization.

Cordia africana (Lam.) Our findings indicated that both the crude leaf extracts and fractions of C. africana possess antimalarial effects, supporting the traditional claim of the plant. It is commonly named as East African Cordia or large-leafed Cordia or Sudan teak in English, which is one of the main sources of traditional medicines serving to treat different diseases of human beings, ... e antimalarial activity of C. africana may be due to inhibition of the release of the inflammatory mediators associated with malaria such as cytokines [50,51]. Zizyphus sp, Acacia sp, Euphorbia sp, Cordia sp, Hypoestes sp, Blepharis sp and Kleinia This tree belongs to the Boraginaceae or forget-me-not family, which also includes the herbs comfrey and borage. Background. by Cordia africana Lam. The rural populations in Ethiopia have a rich knowledge of wild edible plants and consumption of wild edible plants is still an integral part of the different cultures in the country. The float-and-sink test method that used to sort out infested against sound pyrenes were found not applicable in our trial for the reason that both pyrenes were found sunk. Evaluation of Agroforestry Systems. The ethnomedicinal use of 259 plant species mainly herbs (31 to 51%), shrubs (31 to 46%) and trees (13 to 39%) used to treat 147 human and livestock ailments were documented in the study area. It is mainly propagated by pyrene, which is found to be attacked by an unidentified seed borer insect. On the other hand, Pinus patula, a relatively open canopy conifer, had intermediate CCP, LAI, air and soil temperatures between the broadleaved species and Cupressus lusitanica, but had comparable species richness, density, DBH and heights of CWS with those of the broadleaved species. This was equivalent to an increase of 3–5% of the percentage of C contributed by C3 species. It is a multipurpose tree with several groups of insect pests that affect the seeds, fruits and leaves of this species. It is therefore, recommended that people need to be encouraged Similar numbers of winter bees survived to spring in colonies and workers had similar physiology and brood-rearing efficiencies. The aim of this study was to identify the causative agent responsible for leaf defoliation in Raya Azebo District and Wondo Genet College of Forestry and Natural Resource in Ethiopia. Glossary. nutritional contribution of wild fruits to the people’s diets remains largely unexploited. at one site the number of stems ha−1 on farms of poor households was higher than on farms of wealthier households. It is essential reading for all concerned with agroforestry whether as students, research scientists or for practical purposes of development. The study was carried out at farm-landscape, homestead levels, woodlot and grazing areas. To achieve this, four isolated and nearly identical Millettia trees growing on similar site conditions were selected and canopy coverage of each tree was divided into four radial transects. Paradecatoma bannensis has emerged from de-pulped drupes. is one of the common forest tree species in the family. The documented medicinal plants can serve as a basis for further studies on the regions medicinal plants knowledge and for future phytochemical and pharmacological studies. The information was collected from informants of three ethnic groups namely, Kusume, Derashe and Gamo people. Peptic ulcer affects around 10%- 15% of the general population worldwide. The five selected indigenous MPFT species had chemical composition of 11-21% Crude protein, 8-14% ash, 38-56% Neutral detergent fiber, 33-51% Acid detergent fiber and 9-17% lignin, indicating their wide variability among species (P < 0.05). a wider and sustained acceptance of wild fruits as important dietary components must be fostered. It is mainly propagated by pyrene, which is found to be attacked by an unidentified seed borer insect. Gmelina arborea, an exotic species, recorded the highest wood yield (44.78m3/ha/year) while Pterocarpus soyauxii, an indigenous species, recorded the lowest wood yield (1.5m3/ha/year). The crude extract of the plant exhibited significant parasitemia suppression in the four-day suppression (51.19%), curative (57.14%), and prophylactic (46.48%) tests at 600 mg/kg.

In Ethiopia, the medicinal uses of Cordia africana have been reported previously. Cordia africana is a forage tree for honeybees and flowers between March and October. III: Agroforestry Species. An ethnomedicinal study was conducted to document the indigenous medicinal plant knowledge on the management, use, and ecology of locally important medicinal plants in Tigray, Northern Ethiopia. This paper features the composition of wild fruits, their exploitation and their potential contribution to improved food and The households sorted based on the highest n, The Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS ver. Diverse climatic conditions of Nepal harbor five species of honeybee out of which Apis laboriosa, A. dorsata, A. cerena, A. florae are native, whereas Apis mellifera was introduced and is being reared commercially. Tagged with: Albizia gummifera, Cordia africana, Milletia ferruginea, Senescence, Shade trees, Sub-humid tropical Decomposition of leaves from two indigenous trees of contrasting qualities under shaded-coffee and agricultural land-uses during the dry season at Wondo Genet, Ethiopia Cordia composed of five species distributed in different areas of the Sudan (Andrews, 1956), although there are great differences in morphological structure of the species. Accordingly, we propose that stands of plantation species with open canopies could enhance more native woody recolonization than stands of plantation species with dense canopies at the study site. Semi-structured interview, field observation, group discussion, market survey, and pair wise ranking were employed to gather ethnobotanical data. the potential final yield from a tree was determined. Given the thesis that trees determine the basic structure of life on earth, it is imperative that Ethiopia strives to acquire specific knowledge on the reproductive and propagation biology of indigenous trees, as well as the physiological processes that determine their establishment on degraded landscapes. It is also sometime called Sudan Teak and has been used for cabinet making, high-quality furniture, veneers and general construction. C. africana is a fruit with good quantities of TP, and small amounts of antioxidants measured with FRAP. Eucalyptus camaldulensis. Forests and Forest Trees of Northeast Tropical Africa. 13. Ethiopian Mapping Agency. The agroforestry homegardens of the Southern Ethiopian highlands are dominated by the native perennial crops enset and coffee, and additionally include a large variety of staple food crops, vegetables and tree crops. The study was carried out in Mana Angetu district between January 2003 and December 2004. 2, Spurr, S.H. This research was initiated to document indigenous knowledge associated with traditional medicinal plants; specifically to identify the plant parts used for medicinal purposes and investigate plant species that are used as medicines for the treatment of human health problems. Fortyfour This suggests that the current domestication process of the tree is not adequate to obtain a best tree for timber. Contents of macronutrients and organics in initial and recovered residues were measured. The n-butanol fraction exhibited the highest chemosuppression (55.62%) at 400 mg/kg, followed by the chloroform fraction (45.04%) at the same dose. work was to evaluate the physiological and leaf characteristics of different coffee in Ethiopia (English shop) Abayneh Derero (Author) Preview. Journal of Pharmacognosy and Phytochemistry ... eastern Tigray, northern Ethiopia indicated that (62.96%) of the traditional medicinal plants were wild while 5 species (18.52%) were gotten from It is one of the major timber species in Ethiopia that have been exploited commercially. It is locally threatened and is given protection by proclamation (Government of Ethiopia, Proclamation No. honeybees populations of the tree species Cordia africana Lam. Plantation Crop Combinations. Regarding the similar physical properties within the wood, the hives made of cement- vermiculite mortar (CVM) have been tested in order to find out if they show also similar biological responses to the wooden hives. = 3) = 0.872) and plant parts used (Pearson's Chi-square test (d.f. The distribution of plant species in the study areas was surveyed, and preference ranking, direct matrix ranking, priority ranking of factors and Informant consensus factor (ICF) were calculated. The study documented 66 edible plant species belonging to 54 genera and 34 families. With the current estimated 36% LRF the sawmill produces 720 m3 of sawn wood from annually delivered 2,000 m3 round wood. 6. Interactions between these two components are of vital importance for the persistence of a savanna landscape. C.lusitanica plantations had a significantlyhigher abundance of woody species than those ofP. Faculty of Forestry, Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences, of Forestry, Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences, Swed, Agro-climatic Zones. Among other economic and ecological benefits, C. africana is an important source of food, firewood, bee forage, and timber for construction and making household tools and farm implements, Numerical methods/Approaches to Biodiversity studies, plant ecology and ethno-ecology (R and GIS based approaches to plant diversity studies and community analysis) R integrated GIS based analysis, Investigate the status of the intra and inter specific diversity among landraces (farmers' varieties) of selected leguminous crops and tree leguminous species. By proper regulation of light and temperature conditions, prolonged nursery germination of J. procera seeds can be reduced. Apart from the concentration of Na in the topsoil, It is known by the name Sudan teak, East African Cordia, large-leafed Cordia, and Sebastian fruit [6]. Cordia africana grows in the Middle East and Africa. Drupes were collected from nine study locations. Management-related data were collected using informal and formal surveys. After the success of an initial pilot project (EthioTrees), the aim of this SI project is to estimate and expand the valorisation potential of ecosystem services from exclosures in the Tembien Highlands. Fruit of Opuntia ficus-indica L., and leaves and young shoots of Leptadenia hastata Vatke were most sought after. Sixteen (41%) of the plant parts were used as a substitute for cultivated vegetables during times of scarcity. 19. And according to the experiment, coffee may classified as The findings suggest that (i) Public awareness and community based management need to be encouraged at all levels in order to overcome the threats; (ii) further investigation into nutritional properties of all the species reported; and (iii) Since the species are also nutraceutical, study on the pharmacological attributes would help to understand their medicinal applications. Medicinal plants are the key source of new effective antimalarial agents. Applied forest tree improvement. All rights reserved. More than one medicinal plant species were used more frequently than the use of a single species for remedy preparations. Medicinal plants are the key source of new effective antimalarial agents. and geographical honey sources. Cordia africana which belongs to the family of Boraginaceae is a deciduous forest tree widely distributed from South Africa to Saudi Arabia and Yemen at altitudes between 550 - 2600 m.a.s.l. Well-designed and managed agroforestry systems have the potential to control runoff and erosion, maintain soil organic matter and physical properties and promote nutrient cycling. The larval and adult stages of this wasp were also found inside crushed drupes. ... As Ethiopia's riparian habitats have been under constant demographic pressure, C. africana is one of the several tree species that is overexploited in the country and is listed as one of main planted species in Ethiopia (EIAR 2001;Negash 2010). species are available for use in the study areas. patula, but the difference wasnot significant in relation to J. procera,G. important. with 14 and 13 species respectively. Department of Forestry and Rural Develo. The project will analyse different ecosystem services (soil carbon, biomass and green water) and estimate their potential for involvement in voluntary carbon credit schemes. This paper presents, for the first time, an overview of all known tree species by scientific name and country level distribution, and describes an online database—GlobalTreeSearch—that provides access to this information. Peoples' culture and spiritual beliefs somehow helped in the conservation of medicinal plants. Single-dose administration of 400 & 600 mg/kg extract showed a significant reduction in the volume of secretion and acidity of the stomach (p <0.01). The five MPFT species from identified indigenous fodder were important and taken in this study for biomass estimation and laboratory analysis were Erythrina brucei, Vernonia amygalina, Ehertia cymosa, Cordia africana and Dovylas abyssinica. Ethnobotanical data were collected from 250 people, using semi-structured questionnaires, field observation and informal discussion. Malaria remains a major worldwide public health problem leading to death of millions of people. Forest ecology. Excessive harvesting and acquisition of land for crop cultivation is currently threatening Canthium pseudosetiflorum Bridson, Hyphaene thebaica (L.)
