Domestic forests: a new paradigm for integrating local communities’ forestry into tropical forest science por Michon, G., Foresta, H. de, Levang, P., Verdeaux, F.

“…The resulting forest is uneven-aged, composed of several strata, harboring a large diversity of species, and producing a wide range of products, with timber seldom being the dominant one. The term “domestic forest” aims at highlighting the close relationship the domestication process establishes between a specific human group, including its elementary units, the “domestic units,” and the forest, transformed and managed to fulfill the needs of that group. …”

Pullet production and supply business development by women’s groups in selected kebeles of Dale pilot learning woreda: Experiences from IPMS por Yilma, K., Tegegne, Azage, Hoekstra, Dirk, Yigzaw, M.

“…Empirical results show that: i) the group approach helped to improve linkages, communication, and access to knowledge, technology, finance, inputs (day-old chicks and feed), veterinary service, and market; ii) the groups were able to successfully produce and supply pullets thus making an additional income of Ethiopian birr (ETB)1 833/hh; iii) the approach stimulates growing demand for the 5 months-old pullets, especially by government/donor financed programs. While being technically and economically viable, the system requires institutional upgrading so as to ensure sustainability of input supply (chicks, feed and vaccine/drugs) at the nearest market both for pullet and egg producers. …”

Morphological characterization and breeding system identification of local sheep breeds in Niger por Abdoul Karim, B.A., M'Naouer, D., Ayantunde, Augustine A.

“…The characterization investigations were carried out on 324 Niger sheep; the breed phenotypic characterization for their production field, spread over 4 ethnic regions (Fakara, Sinder, Manga and Zarmaganda) and concerned 5 Niger native sheep breeds among which three meat breeds: the Oudah with two-colored fleece and Bali Bali with fleece are both of big size and raised by Fulani communities in southwest areas; the Tuareg Ara Ara breed is high on leg with average size being used in the north pastoral regions; two wool breads – the Koudoum found on the banks and Kourte` ye islands of Niger River and the Toubou or Hadine breeds in Manga (in the southeast); Besides these breads, there are two breeds introduced for strong butcher capacities – the Balami (native of Nigeria) introduced constantly by shepherds into border areas of Nigeria and the Sudanese (native of Sudan) introduced recently into Manga areas via the Chadian border.…”

Lysosomal and non-lysosomal peptidyl hydrolases of the bloodstream forms of Trypanosoma brucei brucei por Lonsdale-Eccles, John D., Grab, D.J.

“…The serum of some species of animal (e.g. goat and guinea pig) appear to lack the ability to generate this new and increased activity, while rat, rabbit, human and bovine sera exhibit varying capacities to generate the new activity, the cow being the most effective. The apparent molecular masses of the new bands of activity are different for each mammalian species, suggesting that the activator is a species‐specific molecule or class of molecules.We also show that Trypansosoma brucei contains soluble peptidolytic activity with an alkaline pH optimum. …”
