R. J Anim Sci Adv 2014, 4(6): 883-890 DOI: 10.5455/jasa.20140526093512 Online version is available on: www.grjournals.com ISSN: 2251-7219 SETLALEKGOMO M. R. Original Article Ethnozoological Survey of the Indigenous Knowledge on the Use of Pangolins (Manis Sps) in Traditional Medicine in Lentsweletau Extended Area in Botswana Setlalekgomo M. R. *Botswana College of Agriculture, Private Bag 0027, Gaborone, Botswana. Abstract Animals have played an important role in human life from prehistory. Many animals are used in zootherapy worldwide. However, the zootherapeutic practices by some communities are not well documented and may be forgotten. An ethnozoological study to document indigenous knowledge on the utilisation of pangolins in traditional medicine in Lentsweletau area in Botswana was carried out. A formal questionnaire was administered to 37 informants. The informants were 70.27% males and 29.73% females. The 10.81% of the informants were traditional doctors. Only 67.57% of the informants knew pangolins. The study revealed that most of the informants currently under the age of forty years did not know pangolins. However, the community had several pangolin myths. Pangolins were used mainly in traditional medicine (79.41%) and rarely as bush meat (20.59%) in the past. The study showed that different body parts of pangolins were used as charms and in the treatment of various human ailments like cracked heels, epistaxis, hypertension and psoriasis. The commonly used parts in the treatment of human ailments were blood and scales.

Full Length Research Paper Morphological variability of tepary bean landraces grown in Botswana *Nijel Amantle Mpule, Baralong Mompati and Mapela Kenosi Department of Agricultural Research, Oilseeds and Grain Legumes, Ministry of Agriculture, Private Bag 0033, Gaborone, Botswana. Accepted 11 January, 2017 A field experiment was conducted at Department of Agricultural Research in Sebele in the 2012 to 2013 season using nine accessions that were sourced from the National Plant Genetic Resource Centre (NPGRC), Gaborone, Botswana. Multivariate statistical procedures such as clusters and principal component analysis were used on 15 selected characters to assess agro-morphological variability among tepary bean landraces collected in Botswana. Few characters were statistically significant which suggest lower genetic diversity among the Botswana tepary beans. The first three PCA accounted for 77.12% of accumulated variation. Traits which revealed significant contribution to variation among accessions were number of leaves, plant spread, pod width, 100 seed weight and seeds per pod. The dendrogram results also showed that these characters contributed significantly to the grouping of accessions into three clusters. Three accessions GK011, MTS (Motsumi) and GK012 were separated from the rest of the accessions. However, GK012 and MTS (Motsumi) with highest number of valuable traits are recommended for plant breeders to use as parents in future breeding programs. Key words: Tepary bean, agro-morphological traits, dendrogram, principal components analysis, multivariate analysis.
