Over the next decades, agricultural production practices will change significantly and become more sustainable while they also respond to the need to contribute to reducing malnutrition and hunger and meeting the challenges of climate change. The enhanced use of agricultural biodiversity will pla...

Naturally occurring fungal antagonists of root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp., RKNs) were collected from 88 root and corresponding rhizosphere soil samples from 50 intensively cultivated fields used for peri-urban vegetable production in Benin, West Africa. Five species of Trichoderma viz.: T. ...

The Crop Genebank Knowledge Base (CGKB) is an initiative of the Consultative Group of International Agriculture Research (CGIAR) System-wide Genetic Resources Programme (SGRP). The CGKB was created for sharing knowledge about best practices for managing plant genetic resources (PGR), and making e...

Based on an extensive review of the literature, and broad consultation with experts, we have assessed the sensitivity of Bornean vertebrates to the direct and indirect effects of timber harvest. Well-implemented selective logging has a relatively limited direct impact on wildlife populations: few...

In this study, the impact of forest disturbance on earthworm assemblages was assessed using monoliths dug out at 5 m intervals along a gradient of land-use intensification. The land-use types comprised primary forest (as a baseline), secondary forest, tree plantation, fallow, perennial and annual...

The Amazon forest has been converted to a matrix of pristine and modified habitats. Landscape-scale biodiversity conservation requires an understanding of species’ distributions over this matrix to guarantee both effective protection and use for present and future generations. In this study, we e...

Forest fires have many implications for biological diversity.This article showed the effects of forest fires on the forest ecology, the impact of human-induced or severe natural wildfire on plant diversity, effects of fire on forest fauna and effects of suppression of the natural fire regime. In ...
