The potential forage value and appropriate length of study on intake and relative palatability ranking of 40 multipurpose tree species (MPTs) were determined using 24 sheep blocked on live weight and age. As the MPTs had different dry matter contents, intakes were also expressed as a ratio of qua...

Some species of the genus Erythrina have considerable potential as forage, but information on their nutritional value is scanty. The objective of the study was to define groups of Erythrina provenances based on rumen degradation parameters for dry matter and nitrogen which would be useful in the ...

Feeding value of Erythrina abyssinica leaves were evaluated with native sheep and goats at Soddo, southern Ethiopia in a 21-day digestibility and 80- day growth trial. In the digestibility trial, wilted leaves of E. abyssinica were fed add libitum, while in the growth trial, animals were offered ...

In vitro cultures were initiated from shoots taken from seedlings of Faidherbia albida on Murashige and skoog based medium supplemented with different combinations of 6-benzylaminopurine (BA) and alpha-raphthaleneacetic acid (NAA). The shoots grew and rooted on all media. Rooting and vigorous gro...

Leaves of nine agroforestry tree species (Grevillea robusta, Erythrina abyssinica, Gliricidia sepium, Albizia schimperiana. Acacia nilotica. Acacia polyacantha, Leu-caena leucocephala, Leucaena pallida and Entada abys-sinica) were compared in a glasshouse incubation experiment under natural tempe...

Chloris roxburghiana is an important rangeland grass in Kenya. In some areas it has disappeared due to land degradation resulting from overgrazing and drought. Efforts to re-introduce the grass through re-seeding using seeds from research stations have had little success. One possible reason for ...

The genus Stylosanthes contains about 30 species of which most are native to South and Central America, except for S. erecta and S. fruticosa which are native to Africa. The seven major species that have been used as livestock feed have been widely collected and their germplasm stored in genebank...
