  • Tapia Woodlands of Highland Madagascar: Rural Economy, Fire Ecology, and Forest Conservation
    The 'degraded' tapia woodlands of highland Madagascar: rural economy, fire ecology, and forest conservation Christian A. Kull This is an author-archived version of the following paper: Kull 2002. The 'degraded' tapia woodlands of highland Madagascar: rural economy, fire ecology, and forest conservation. Journal of Cultural Geography 19 (2): 95-128. The final definitive version is available from Taylor and Francis (www.tandfonline.com) Direct link: http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/08873630209478290 Abstract Madagascar is well-known for deforestation. However, highland "tapia" (Uapaca bojeri) woodlands may present a counter-example of indigenous management leading to woodland conservation. Contrary to common wisdom that these woodlands are degraded, tapia woodland extent and composition have seen little change this century. Tapia woodlands harbor many benefits, including wild silkworms (whose cocoons have been harvested for centuries to weave expensive burial shrouds), fruit, woodfuel, mushrooms, edible insects, and herbal medicines. As a result, villagers shape and maintain the woodlands. Burning favors the dominance of pyrophitic tapia trees and protects silkworms from parasites. Selective cutting of non-tapia species and pruning of dead branches also favors tapia dominance and perhaps growth. Finally, local and state-imposed regulations protect the woodlands from over-exploitation. These processes -- burning, cutting, and protection -- are embedded in complex and dynamic social, political, economic, and ecological contexts which are integral to the tapia woodlands as they exist today. As a result, I argue on a normative level that the creation and maintenance of the woodlands should not be seen as “degradation,” rather as a creative “transformation.” INTRODUCTION Few endemic forests exist in highland Madagascar, a region dominated by vast grasslands, rice paddies, dryland cropfields, and pine or eucalyptus woodlots.

Faculté des Sciences Semlalia. Université Cadi Ayyad. Marrakech. Maroc Abstract Mycorrhizal fungi are ubiquitous components of most ecosystems throughout the world and are considered key ecological factors in (1) governing the cycles of major plant nutrients and (2) sustaining the vegetation cover. Two major forms of mycorrhizas are usually recognized: the arbuscular mycorrhizas (AM) and the ectomycorrhizas (ECM). The lack of mycorrhizal fungi on root systems is a leading cause of poor plant establishment and growth in a variety of forest landscapes. Numerous studies have shown that mycorrhizal fungi are * E-mail address: [email protected] Ramanankierana et al.

Breteler Herbarium Vadense, Biosystematics Group,Wageningen University, Generaal Foulkesweg 37, NL – 6703 BL Wageningen, The Netherlands. E-mail: [email protected] Background and aims – The African genus Uapaca of the Phyllanthaceae (formerly Euphorbiaceae) is revised for the Flore du Gabon. Prior to its publication, the present paper publishes a new species from that country. Methods – Normal practices of herbarium taxonomy have been applied to study all herbarium material available mainly at BR, K, LBV, MO, P, WAG. Key results – The new species Uapaca niangadoumae belongs to the group of Uapaca species that lack stipules or have rudimenary stipules only. A key to these species is provided. The new species is illustrated. Key words – Phyllanthaceae (formerly Euphorbiaceae), Uapaca, taxonomy, Gabon, tropical Africa, new species. INTRODUCTION terisation of the new species by the leaves and the absence of stipules, does not leave any doubt about its existence.

Accepted 8 April, 2014 ABSTRACT Ectomycorrhizal fungal community is largely integrated into the overall diversity and ecosystem processes. This study aims to determine the below-ground structure of ectomycorrhizal fungi community associated with Uapaca bojeri and Sarcolaena oblongifolia in highland sclerophyllous forest of Madagascar and to assess the impact of shared ectomycorrhizal symbiont on tree seedling recruitment and plant succession facilitation. Ectomycorrhizal fungi were identified based on morphotyping and RFLP analysis of rDNA internal transcribed spacer (ITS)-large subunit followed by sequence analysis of each RFLP pattern.
