Climate change aggravates anthropogenic threats of the endangered savanna tree Pterocarpus erinaceus (Fabaceae) in Burkina Faso
Kangbéni Dimobe, Korotimi Ouédraogo, Peter Annighöfer, Johannes Kollmann, Jules Bayala, Christian Hof, Marco Schmidt, Dethardt Goetze, Stefan Porembski, Adjima Thiombiano,
Species distribution modelling is gaining popularity due to significant habitat shifts in many plant and animal species caused by climate change. This issue is particularly pressing for species that provide significant ecosystem goods and services. A prominent case is the valuable African rosewood tree (Pterocarpus erinaceus) that is threatene(...)

Characterization of Balanites aegyptiaca Nectar Lyophilisate for a Refreshing Drink Production
Tapsoba François, Bationo Frédéric, Dawendé/Compaoré Sidbewendé Clarisse, Pacmogda Emmanuel, Zongo Oumarou, Cisse Hama, Zongo Cheikna, Savadogo Aly
Balanites aegyptiaca is a forest species with high nutritional and medicinal value. Its transformation, which is always artisanal, contributes little to the exploitation of its potential. Thus, the present study aimed to valorize B. aegyptiaca by developing a freeze-drying technology for its nectar for better preservation. In his study, a surv(...)

The plants native to tropical climates and even southern Africa (5/8) are
considerable, which served as a matrix for the isolation and identification of natural
sweeteners. These compounds of plant origin have become essential in many fields. From
the agronomic industry to the pharmaceutical industry, their use is aimed at combating the
