Over the course of the recent decade, the composition of Alsineae has been drastically changed by means of molecular phylogeny. However, the genus Brachystemma has not been sampled in any of the previous studies, and its phylogenetic position is still pending.

Abstract:Dominant woody species can determine the structure and composition of a plant community by affecting environmental conditions experienced by other species. We explored how dominant tree species affect the tree species richness, diversity, evenness and vertical structural heterogeneity of non-dominant species in wet and dry miombo woodlands of Tanzania. We sampled 146 plots from eight districts with miombo woodlands, covering a wide range of topographic and climatic conditions. We recorded 217 woody plant species belonging to 48 families and 122 genera. Regression analysis showed signi

The research looked at some selected physical properties of &lt;I&gt;Brachystegia eurycoma&lt;/I&gt;, such as axial dimension, roundness, sphericity, surface area, bulk density, solid density, porosity, and volume which are essential in the design and construction of the processing and handling equipments of &lt;I&gt;Brachystegia eurycoma&lt;/I&gt;. All the above physical properties measured showed some deviations from the average values which is typical of agricultural biomaterials. Solid density showed the highest deviation of 4.04 g/mm&lt;sup&gt;3&lt;/sup&gt; while the volume showed the lea

This work is aimed at identifying these organisms in order to reduce the contamination of food condiments. A survey of seed-borne fungi associated with the seeds of <em>Brachystegia eurycoma</em> and <em>Detarium macrocarpum </em>(Whole and Ground) obtained from two different local markets in Rivers State namely; Etche and Bori was conducted. Fungi were isolated using Standard Blotter Method and pure cultures of <em>Aspergillus flavus, Aspergillus niger, Aspergillus spp, Botrydiplodia theobromae, Fusarium solani, Rhizopus stolonifer, Penicillium spp, Penicillium notatum and Fusarium moniliform

Abstract:
We describe a novel species of Ceropegia (Apocynaceae-Asclepiadoideae-Ceropegieae), C. strophanthiflora, from inland of Mtubatuba in northern KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. The new species is placed in section Chamaesiphon where it appears to be vegetatively and floristically most similar to C. rehmannii (formerly Brachystelma foetidum). Ceropegia strophanthiflora can, however, be readily distinguished from this species by its strikingly colourful greenish-yellow flowers with bright purple markings and purplish-pink vibratile hairs fringing the corolla lobe bases. Most remarkable, however, are t

A biochemical analysis of Brachystegia eurycoma hurm seeds was conducted. Brachystegia, of the family Leguminosae sub-family: Caesalpinioideae is a timber tree whose seeds ``achi", are relished as soup condiment by the Igbo-speaking people of Nigeria. The seeds were subjected to oil extraction using the Sorhler method. The oil was subjected to chemical analysis to determine the saponification, iodine, free fatty acid and acid values. Proximate analysis was carried out on the seed meal and the seed coal. Results showed that the oil content was 3.33% which is of good quality and fit for Human co

Abstract:
This study investigated the calorific values of five tree species, three of which are exotic and grown in agroforestry systems and the other two are naturally growing and indigenous in Tabora, Tanzania. Whereas the exotics are Acacia crassicarpa, Acacia leptocarpa and Acacia julifera, the indigenous species are Brachystegia boehmii and Brachystegia spiciformis. Wood fuel, primarily in the form of charcoal and firewood, is a critical energy source in developing countries, particularly for heating and tobacco curing. Understanding the calorific values of these species is essential for optimizing
