It is a great challenge for researchers to select plant species in terms of their physiological and root properties for vegetation on slope. Therefore, this study was aimed to investigate the physiology and root profile of four selected tropical plants namely Leucaena leucocephala (LL), Adenanthera pavonina (AP), Peltophorum pterocarpum (PP) and Pterocarpus indicus (PI). The species studied wer...

The Black Crowned Crane Balearica pavonina is a resident of the Sahel and Sudan Savanna regions of Africa, ranging from the Senegal Basin and Guinea-Bissau Drainage in West Africa to the Western Ethiopian Highlands and South-West Rift Valley in East Africa. There are two black crowned-crane subspecies. The West African Crowned Crane, Balearica pavonina pavonina occupies the western part of this...

The aim of present study was to investigate the attenuating effects of Adenanthera pavonina L., Leguminosae-Mimosaceae seeds aqueous extract (APSAE), in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic neuropathy in rats. APSAE (50, 100 and 200 mg/kg per day) was given to diabetic rats for twelve weeks. Cold and hot water tail immersion tests, photoactometer and Rota-rod tests were performed to assess deg...
