Inadequate knowledge about forests over limestone ecosystem and understanding on how the threatened plants‘ mother trees are distributed and remained intact despite rugged topography and anthropologic activities, intrigued the attention of numerous researchers. Rapid assessment and mapping the spatial distribution of mother trees would be of utmost importance, especially in the context of conservation and sustainable protection of threatened species in selected municipalities of Samar Island.

Cupressus gigantea, a rare and endangered tree species with remarkable medicinal value, is endemic to the Tibetan Plateau. Yet, little is known about the underlying genetics of the unique ecological adaptability of this extremely long-lived conifer with a large genome size. Here, we present its first de novo and multi-tissue transcriptome in-depth characterization.

Efforts towards species conservation are focused on declining populations with less emphasis on dominant species. This has resulted to a once dominant species in forest ecosystem becoming endangered or at the verge of extinction. The study examined woody plants composition and stand structure of Detarium woodland to ascertain the conservation need of the species and other woody plants in Pandam wildlife Park, Plateau State, Nigeria. Four sample plots (250x10m each) were randomly established across the Daterium woodland.

Diospyros ebenum Koenig belongs to family ebenaceae and commonly known as “Kari Mara” or ebony. It is a large evergreen tree with dense crown and clear bole. The species under threat is due to illicit felling and slow germination in natural condition. To overcome the germination problem an attempt was made at College of Forestry Ponnampet to get more sprouts through air layering with different concentration of IBA.
