A review of Momordica species in Africa (Cucurbitaceae): Current knowledge and perspectives for sustainable management
Background: African Indigenous Vegetables (AIVs), particularly species of the genus Momordica, are crucial for West African communities, offering nutritious leaves, fruits, and seeds used both as food and traditional medicine. Earlier publications emphasized the significance of the genus Momordica, focusing on pharmacology, traditional uses, and biochemical components. However, current knowledge and research on sustainable management policies rem…
Dynamics of Mangrove ecosystem in Ramsar site 1017 face to climate change in Southern Benin (West Africa)
Cultural and socio-economic determinants of natural dye usage: A case of African dye plants in Benin
Background: The use of natural dyes in Benin varies across cultural and regional contexts. This study explores traditional knowledge and practices while testing Phillips and Gentry’s hypothesis linking plant utility to taxonomic group, growth form, abundance, and size. Methods: Ethnobotanical surveys were carried out in 31 communes (May–October 2024) with 722 participants selected using Dagnelie’s (1998) formula. Data on dye species, categories o…
Spatial and temporal distribution of knowledge on Ritchiea capparoides (Andrews) Britten
Background: Ritchiea capparoides is a fast-growing ornamental climbing shrub native to Africa, classified under the Capparaceae family. Despite its importance, it is commonly associated with genera Maerua and Crateva. This bibliometric analysis assesses the spatial and temporal distribution of scientific knowledge concerning these genera, utilizing major academic databases. Methods: Scientific literature was retrieved from Scopus and Web of Scien…
Ethnobotany of Pentadesma butyracea in Benin: A quantitative approach
Integrating ethnobotanical knowledge in the development of management and conservation strategies of indigenous plant resources is critical to their effectiveness. In this paper, we used four plant use indices to assess how the plant use knowledge of a multipurpose tree (Pentadesma butyracea Sabine) varies across different sociolinguistic groups from two geographical areas of Benin, and how these variations may influence the species’ conservation…
