Impact of Climate Change on Priority Plant Species Conservation in The Forests Under ONAB (the National Wood Office of Benin) Management
European Scientific Journal ESJ
The sustainable conservation of forest resources in a context of climate change and population growth would be compromised in their current form of exploitation by rural communities. The objective of this study is to assess the impact of climate change on the dynamics of habitats favorable to specie…

Abundance and effects of climate change on geographical distribution of Mondia whitei (Hook.f.) Skeels (Apocynaceae) in the Dahomey Gap (West Africa)
African Journal of Ecology
African healthcare system depends upon indigenous medicinal plants, harvested wild and traded for significant income generation. Mondia whitei, one of these plants, is threatened by over-exploitation, climate change and unsustainable land use management. Detailed knowledge is lacking regarding the s…

Modeling Earth Systems and Environment
The modelling of the ecological niche of Harrisonia abyssinica in Benin made it possible to have a function of both parameters which predicts the probability of the presence of the species in their respective habitats. This study showed the current distribution of this species and its prediction for…

International Journal of Biodiversity and Conservation
Benin’s native biodiversity, like other countries in the world, is facing biological invasions through the proliferation of invasive alien species. One of them, the pignut (Mesosphaerum suaveolens (L.) Kuntze, Lamiaceae), represents a serious threat to the biodiversity. The control of its spatial di…

Pest Management Science
BACKGROUND: The southern armyworm (SAW) Spodoptera eridania (Stoll) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) is native to the tropical Americas where the pest can feed on more than 100 plant species. SAW was recently detected in West and Central Africa, feeding on various crops including cassava, cotton, amaranth a…

Parataxonomy, perceived dynamics and diversity of uses of two Detarium species in Benin (West Africa)
Genetic Resources and Crop Evolution
The contribution of species providing non-timber forest products to the livelihoods of local communities is well established. However, this contribution may be limited by the existence of confusion while dealing with close relative species. This is particularly the case for Detarium microcarpum Guil…

Genetic Resources and Crop Evolution
Cochlospermum planchonii Hook.f. ex Planch. and Cochlospermum tinctorium Perrier ex A. Rich. are two wild edible plant species (WEPs), widely used in the West African Sudanian zone. Their parts are used as food additive, fodder, medical-magic and ethnoveterinary purposes, dye and arts. Unfortunately…
