People and Nature
The exceptional diversity of shallow‐water marine fishes contributes to the nutrition of millions of people worldwide through coastal wild‐capture fisheries, with different species having diverse nutritional profiles. Fishes in ecosystems are reservoirs of micronutrients with benefits to human healt…

International Journal of Mosquito Research
Lymphatic filariasis is an endemic parasitic disease transmitted to humans by mosquitoes and constitutes a public health problem in Benin. In 2000, the prevalence of infection covered 50 municipalities across the country, with the highest prevalence observed in the southern and central departments o…

Modeling Earth Systems and Environment
Species distribution models (SDMs) are crucial in ecology, conservation, and ecosystem management. Numerous SDMs have been developed over time, and studies have shown that these tools can be affected by a range of factors, such as data type, spatial resolution, number of explanatory variables, sampl…

Plant Ecology and Evolution
AbstractBackground and aims – Climate change induces increasing temperatures and drought, with possible profound shifts in species’ presence and distribution. Ecological niche models are widely used to assess plant species responses to climate change. However, such data are scarce for West Africa, p…

Plant Pathology
The effectiveness of agroecological management strategies (AEMS) in controlling bacterial wilt caused by Ralstonia solanacearum species complex (RSSC) remains a critical question. A quantitative review was conducted based on publications reporting agroecological bacterial wilt management practices u…

Biodiversity Data Journal
AbstractBackgroundThe south of Benin, a country in West Africa, is still home to remnants of dense forests that benefit from a particularly rainy sub-equatorial climate, with annual rainfall of up to 1,200 mm. These forest ecosystems are an integral part of the West African forest block, which stret…

Bacterial wilt (BW) is caused by Ralstonia solanacearum species complex (RSSC) and can lead to severe losses in a wide range of crops, including many traditional African vegetables (TAV). Given the critical role of TAV in African food security, investigations of BW incidence, distribution, and effec…
