Abstract:

Nameriophyes sapidae Xue & Zhang (Acari: Eriophyidae) was found on transplanted nikau palms, Rhopalostylis sapida (H. Wendl. & Drude) in Auckland, New Zealand and described as a new species (Xue & Zhang 2008). Although R. sapida is a native plant species, it was not known if this mite species was indigenous or adventive because it was collected only from transplanted palms in unnatural gardens in Auckland. A survey was undertaken of R. sapida and the Kermadec Island palm, Rhopalostylis baueri (Hook. f.) Wendl. & Drude in the northern part of the North Island and Chatham Island.

Abstract:

The biosynthesis of nanoparticles has been proposed as a cost effective and environmentally friendly alternative to chemical and physical methods. The present work investigates the synthesis of titanium oxide nanoparticles (TiO2 NPs) by green approach using Strychnos spinosa and Blighia sapida leave extracts. The detailed characterization of the TiO2 NPs was carried out using UV-Visible Spectroscopy, Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), X- ray Diffraction (XRD), and Fourier-Transform Infrared (FTIR) Spectroscopy. The green synthesized TiO2 NPs excitation was confirmed using UV–Vis spectrophotom

Abstract:

Background: Blighia sapida, commonly called Ackee, is a tree species belonging to the Sapindaceae family and native to West Africa. Indigenous knowledge claims that different parts of this plant, such as seeds, leaves, stem bark, root, and fruit aril, have therapeutic properties, and empirical scientific studies have also confirmed some of these claims. This is due to its varied phytochemical composition and nutritional advantages. Hence, this re-view contributes to the knowledge of the health benefits and nutritional and phytochemical properties of B.sapida. Methods: An extensive literature s

Abstract:

Mature akee trees, Blighia sapida K. Koenig, in a local south Florida commercial orchard had wilt and dieback symptoms during spring 1999. A fungus isolated from the gray xylem root tissue on V8 agar was identified as Verticillium dahliae Klebahn at the Division of Plant Industry of the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services. Twenty akee seedlings were transplanted into 3.85-liter plastic pots and grown in a greenhouse at a daytime temperature of 28°C and nighttime temperature of 23°C. When plants were approximately 25 cm high, a 15-cm knife was used to sever roots in the four

Abstract:

The study examined the physical properties and combustion efficiency of briquettes produced from sawdust of three selected wood species namely Albizia adianthifolia, Pinus caribbeae and Blighia sapida for household energy utilization. The effect of the binder (cassava starch) on the briquette produced was also assessed. The sawdust and binders were mixed at ratios 150:15, 150:30, and 150:50 in grams respectively. Combustion related properties such as percentage fixed carbon, percentage volatile matter, percentage ash content and calorific values of the briquettes were evaluated. The data obtai

Abstract:

Background: The emergence and spread of multidrug-resistant (MDR) Gram-negative bacteria, particularly those overexpressing efflux pumps, make treatment difficult using conventional antibiotics. This study aims to assess the antibacterial activity of methanol extracts (botanicals) from the leaves (BSL) and bark (BSB) of Blighia sapida against a panel of MDR bacteria that overexpress efflux pumps. Methods: Phytochemical screening of botanicals was carried out using standard qualitative assays. The antibacterial activity and the association of the botanicals with an efflux pump inhibitor (EPI),

Abstract:

The Methanol extract of the arils of fruits of Blighia sapida was studied for its toxic effects on certain hematological and biochemical indices as well as the histopathological examination of some organs of the Wistar rats. Preliminary phytochemical screening showed that the plant contains bioactive compounds such as alkaloids, flavonoids, polyphenols, cardiac glycosides, cyanogenic glycosides, steroid glycosides, cardenolides, terpenes and tannins. Three different concentrations of the extract were administered to different groups of the rats orally for 28 days in the sub-acute test and 90 d

Abstract:

Fungal endophytes are beneficial microbes that confer an added advantage to plants by colonizing their intercellular spaces without causing any harm. Instead, they produce secondary metabolites that play a considerable role in improving the medicinal qualities and protection of the host plants. There are several reports on fungal endophytes isolated from different plants but no report yet on fungal endophytes of Blighia sapida and Euphorbia heterophylla. These two plants were found growing in the Unilorin Sugarcane plantation as weeds. Leaf samples were collected from the plants, sterilized, a

The ackee apple grows in many West African countries, especially Nigeria. The ackee seeds were harvested at Lanlate, Oyo State, Nigeria, where ackee trees are predominant. Standard experimental methods were adopted to determine the properties. The data were analysed using an ANOVA and the least significant difference (LSD) at P ≤ 0.05. As the moisture inc

Abstract:

Blighia sapida aril oil is rich in monounsaturated fatty acids but is however currently not utilized industrially. The oil was characterized utilizing nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). A spectrophotometric assay was conducted to determine the free radical scavenging properties and carotenoid content of the oil. Chemical shifts resonating between δ 5.30 and 5.32 in the 1H NMR are indicative of olefinic protons present in ackee aril oil which are due to the presence of oleic acid. A peak at 3006 cm−1 in the FTIR spectra confirms the high levels
