Seeds of Trichilia dregeana, T. emetica and Protorhus longifolia are recalcitrant (desiccation-sensitive), hence cryopreservation is the only ex situ means feasible for long-term conservation of these germplasm. For cryopreservation of these species, the excised embryonic axis is the explant of

Increased air pollution in a number of developing African countries, together with the reports of vegetation damage typically associated with acid precipitation in commercial forests in South Africa, has raised concerns over the potential impacts of acid rain on natural vegetation in these

Effects of petroleum ether and ethanolic extracts of Trichilia monadelpha stem bark (PEE and EAE) on compound 48/80-induced systemic and passive anaphylaxis were determined. Survival rate, extravasation, degranulation of mast cells, and secretion of tumour necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-6
