  • Dalbergia Proposal Guatemala (Rev.2)
    CONVENTION ON INTERNATIONAL TRADE IN ENDANGERED SPECIES OF WILD FAUNA AND FLORA CONSIDERATION OF PROPOSALS FOR AMENDMENT OF APPENDICES I AND II A. Proposal Inclusion of the genus Dalbergia in CITES Appendix II with exception to the species included in Appendix I. The UNEP-WCMC assessed the Dalbergia species of Latin America and concluded: “… all populations of Dalbergia spp. from South and Central America appear to meet the criteria for listing in CITES Appendix II” (UNEP-WCMC, 2015). Including the whole genus in Appendix II will be essential for the control of international trade by eliminating the arduous task of enforcement and customs officers of differentiating between the hundreds of Dalbergia species listed and not listed in CITES. The inclusion will help ensure that legal trade does not become a direct cause of the extinction of these highly threatened species and will help curb illegal trade. Considering that CITES Appendix II must include all species, which although not necessarily now threatened with extinction may become so unless trade in specimens of such species is subject to strict regulation in order to avoid utilization incompatible with their survival, it is important to include the genus Dalbergia in CITES Appendix II. a) Resolution Conf. 9.24, Annex 2 a, Criterion A - ”It is known, or can be inferred or projected, that the regulation of trade in the species is necessary to avoid it becoming eligible for inclusion in Appendix I in the near future”. b) Resolution Conf. 9.24, Annex 2 a, Criterion B - ”It is known, or can be inferred or projected, that regulation of trade in the species is required to ensure that the harvest of specimens from the wild is not reducing the wild population to a level at which its survival might be threatened by continued harvesting or other influences”.

  • Complete Index of Common Names: Supplement to Tropical Timbers of the World (AH 607)
    Complete Index of Common Names: Supplement to Tropical Timbers of the World (AH 607) by Nancy Ross Preface Since it was published in 1984, Tropical Timbers of the World has proven to be an extremely valuable reference to the properties and uses of tropical woods. It has been particularly valuable for the selection of species for specific products and as a reference for properties information that is important to effective pro- cessing and utilization of several hundred of the most commercially important tropical wood timbers. If a user of the book has only a common or trade name for a species and wishes to know its properties, the user must use the index of common names beginning on page 451. However, most tropical timbers have numerous common or trade names, depending upon the major region or local area of growth; furthermore, different species may be know by the same common name. Herein lies a minor weakness in Tropical Timbers of the World. The index generally contains only the one or two most frequently used common or trade names. If the common name known to the user is not one of those listed in the index, finding the species in the text is impossible other than by searching the book page by page. This process is too laborious to be practical because some species have 20 or more common names. This supplement provides a complete index of common or trade names. This index will prevent a user from erroneously concluding that the book does not contain a specific species because the common name known to the user does not happen to be in the existing index.

  • The Woods of Liberia
    THE WOODS OF LIBERIA October 1959 No. 2159 UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE FOREST PRODUCTS LABORATORY FOREST SERVICE MADISON 5, WISCONSIN In Cooperation with the University of Wisconsin THE WOODS OF LIBERIA1 By JEANNETTE M. KRYN, Botanist and E. W. FOBES, Forester Forest Products Laboratory,2 Forest Service U. S. Department of Agriculture - - - - Introduction The forests of Liberia represent a valuable resource to that country-- especially so because they are renewable. Under good management, these forests will continue to supply mankind with products long after mined resources are exhausted. The vast treeless areas elsewhere in Africa give added emphasis to the economic significance of the forests of Liberia and its neighboring countries in West Africa. The mature forests of Liberia are composed entirely of broadleaf or hardwood tree species. These forests probably covered more than 90 percent of the country in the past, but only about one-third is now covered with them. Another one-third is covered with young forests or reproduction referred to as low bush. The mature, or "high," forests are typical of tropical evergreen or rain forests where rainfall exceeds 60 inches per year without pro­ longed dry periods. Certain species of trees in these forests, such as the cotton tree, are deciduous even when growing in the coastal area of heaviest rainfall, which averages about 190 inches per year. Deciduous species become more prevalent as the rainfall decreases in the interior, where the driest areas average about 70 inches per year. 1The information here reported was prepared in cooperation with the International Cooperation Administration. 2 Maintained at Madison, Wis., in cooperation with the University of Wisconsin.

While a number of tree species had been brought under CITES regulation over the previous decades1, COP-17 saw a marked expansion of CITES timber species listings. The Parties at COP-17 listed the entire Dalbergia genus (some 250 species, including many of the most prized rosewoods), Pterocarpus erinaceous (kosso, a highly-exploited rosewood species from West Africa) and three Guibourtia species (bubinga, another African rosewood) to CITES Appendix II.2 The new listings entered into force on January 2, 2017.

Email: [email protected] Abstract Dalbergia melanoxylon is an economically and ecologically important timber yielding tree species. It is propagated through seeds, but is not successful because of poor seed germination that limits its multiplication. Therefore, the objective of this study was to develop efficient micropropagation protocol for this species. Cotyledonary nodes were used as explants. The highest (85.33%) explants initiated shoots on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium containing 2.0 mg/l 6-benzyl amino purine (BAP) and 1.0 mg/l -Naphthaleneα acetic acid (NAA) of the culture revealed greatest shoot multiplication (6.12 ± 0.13) from nodal segments. The shoots rooted best (92%) on MS medium containing 1.0 mg/l NAA with 5.89 ± 0.47 roots per microshoot. Plantlets were planted in pots containing sterilized forest soil and sand mixture (1:1) and acclimatized in greenhouse. After four weeks of acclimatization in greenhouse, 84.6 % of plants survived. This protocol could be useful for large-scale multiplication and conservation of this ecologically and economically important multipurpose tree.

  • Effective Cutting Type in the Rooting of Dalbergia Melanoxylon in Tanzania
    International Journal of AgriScience Vol. 4(4):256-259, April 2014 www.inacj.com ISSN: 2228-6322© International Academic Journals Effective Cutting type in the Rooting of Dalbergia melanoxylon in Tanzania Washa B.* Washa Mkwawa University College of Education, P.O. Box. Private Bag Iringa Tanzania. *Author for corespondence (email: [email protected]). 0752 356 709 Received February 2014; accepted in revised form March 2014 ABSTRACT A study was conducted to assess the effective type of cutting in rooting of Dalbergia melanoxylon, a woody and non-domesticated species but of highly valued wood and wide spread in tropical Africa and overharvested. Softwood, semi-hardwood, hardwood and root cuttings were excised in wet season and dry season 2010. Soil rhizosphere of the sampled plants was used as potting media in a non-mist propagator in a split plot design. Rooting test was monitored for 3 months during the two seasons. Parameters recorded during the experiment included the proportion of cuttings that rooted, callused, sprouted and the number of roots per cutting. The data were analyzed according to objectives and variables of the study using SPSS software. Results from each experiment were analyzed separately using ANOVA in SPSS software, while differences between treatment means were compared using Duncan Multiple Range Test. Results indicated 100% rooting softwood cuttings, 37% in root cuttings and none of the semi-hardwood and hardwood cuttings rooted. Softwood cuttings of less than 15gms outperformed others in rooting of D. melanoxylon followed by root cuttings. Plant propagators are advised to use softwood cuttings. Keywords: Dalbergia melanoxylon, non-mist propagator, root cuttings, semi-hardwood, softwood INTRODUCTION species.
