A review of the potential for biotechnology to contribute to the management and conservation of forest resources in the Congo Basin suggests that biotechnology needs to be seen as a complementary tool to the traditional management programme not as a substitute. In addition, there is a pressing ne...

Tropical montane forests provide an important natural laboratory to test ecological theory. While it is well-known that some aspects of forest structure change with altitude, little is known on the effects of altitude on above ground biomass (AGB), particularly with regard to changing height-diam...

Non Timber Forest Product (NTFP) processing in Cameroon is still limited to traditional commerce, which mainly involves the supply of raw materials. Furthermore, lack of knowledge on the availability of NTFPs in their biotope does not allow for accurate planning to ensure sustainable management a...
