    Opis:
    An ethnobotanical survey of commonly used medicinal plants was carried out among the people of Northern Cross River comprising five Local Government Areas (Ogoja, Yala, Bekwarra, Obudu and Obanliku) in Cross River State, Nigeria through the use of oral interview using short structured questionnaires. Those interviewed included herbalist (native doctors) and herbal medicine sellers. The survey was to identify commonly used medicinal plants in these areas and how these medicinal plants are sourced and used. Results obtained from the survey show that a total of 110 plant species belonging to 43 families were identified as commonly used medicinal plants in the study area. The commonly used medicinal plants are mostly sourced from uncultivated land, communal (unprotected) and protected forests and farm lands. The survey revealed some of the local uses of these plants and the different ailments they can cure.

    Opis:
    This study was carried out to investigate the fungal pathogens associated with post-harvest deterioration of maize seeds in storage in Oban community, Cross River State, Nigeria, determine the effect of the pathogens on the nutritional content of the maize seeds through biochemical analysis as well as evaluate the phytochemical contents and antifungal activity of ethanolic leaf extracts of Corchorus olitorius and Gongronema latifolium in controlling the isolated fungi in vitro. The fungal pathogens isolated as the causative agents of post-harvest deterioration of maize seeds in this study were Penicillium sp., Fusarium sp., Aspergillus sp., and Rhizopus stolonifer. The result of biochemical analysis of fungal infected and non-infected maize seeds carried out showed a significant increase (P ≤ 0.05) in the moisture content of the fungal infected maize seeds as compared to healthy ones (control), while there was a significant decrease (P ≤ 0.05) in the crude fibre, fat, ash, protein and carbohydrate contents of the fungal infected maize seeds as compared to the healthy ones (control). For the in vitro antifungal assay, various concentrations of the extracts ranging from 20g/200ml, 40g/200 ml, 60g/200 ml, 80g/200 ml and 100g/200 ml were separately added to PDA media. Results shows that at 60g/200 ml and 80g/200 ml and 100g/200 ml concentrations, ethanolic leaf extracts of C. olitorius completely inhibited the radial growth of Penicillium sp., Fusarium sp., Aspergillus sp., and R. stolonifer after seven days observation period while those of ethanolic extracts of G. latifolium completely inhibited the redial growth of the fungal pathogens at 40g/200 ml, 60g/200 ml, 80g/200 ml and 100g/200 ml concentrations. Results, however, shows that the extracts had a significant effect (P ≤ 0.05) on the radial growth of the fungal pathogens at all the different concentrations tested as compared with the control. Phytochemical screening of the extracts revealed the presence of cardiac glycosides, reducing sugars, flavonoids, saponnins, tannins, hydocyanin, and anthraquinones with traces of alkaloids.

    Opis:
    The abundance, stem diameter and height of Pentaclethra macrophylla Benth and Parkia biglobosa Jacq was assessed in each of the five Local Government Areas (Ogoja, Yala, Bekwarra, Obudu and Obanliku) of Northern Cross River State, Nigeria using the Modified Whittaker Method. Two forest communities were chosen from each Local Government Area, constituting 10 sites. In each site a 30 × 90 m plot was laid out in a spoke design and tree species present on the plots were recorded. A total of 3, 4, 5, 7, 4, 5, 6, 5, 12 and 10 stands for P. macrophylla and 4, 5, 5, 6, 6, 6, 4,5,8 and 8 stands for P. biglobosa were recorded in Gbogbu, Omulako, Aragban, Abeya, Aguomoh, Ukpah, Alege, Beteh, Bechevie and Sankwala forests respectively based on the sampled plots. Results of population percentage frequency, density and abundance of the two tree species varied across the study sites. The highest percentage frequency recorded for the tree species was 24% while the lowest was 12%. The highest population densities of 1.6666/ha, 1.3333/ha and 1/ha were recorded for the tree species while the lowest was 0.5/ha. Results of abundance show that the species were mostly rare with abundance ratio of (1.00≤AR≤2.99). Results of diameter class sizes of the tree species encountered in this study show that there were trees with mature trunk size than wildlings. Majority of the trees of P. biglobosa and P. macrophylla were in the diameter class of 20 – 29 cm and 30 – 39 cm respectively while results of the height class of trees shows that the minimum and maximum height was 10 -19 ft and 20 -29 ft respectively. This study shows that the trees of P. macrophylla and P. biglobosa were mostly rare and are declining; this could be as a result of over exploitation.

    Opis:
    Cross River National Park lies between, latitude 5° 05′ and 6° 29′ N and on longitude 8° 15′ and 9° 30′ E., in the South-Eastern corner of Nigeria, in Cross River State. It covers an area of about 4,000sq. km of primary tropical moist rainforest ecosystem in the south and central parts, and montane mosaic on the Obudu Plateau. It is an important ecological gene-pool containing one of the oldest rainforest in Africa. It lies in the Guineo-Congolian rainforest refugia with close canopy and scattered emergent trees which reach a height of between 40 and 50 metres. The vegetation is studied to have evolved over 60 million years. On account of its critical conservation status it has been designated as one of the 25 United Nations biodiversity hotspots in the world. Cross River National Park have two distinct, non-contagious Divisions: Oban and Okwango. Survey of wild mushrooms occurring in the park (Oban Hills Division) was carried out between the months of April to September in 2015 and 2016 respectively. A total of 80 species of mushroom belonging to 40 families and 55 genera were identified using their macro-morphological features. The identified species and varieties spread over in the following genera viz., Agaricus, Agrocybe, Aleuria, Amanita, Arachnopeziza, Armillaria, Armillariella, Ascocoryne, Atroumbonata, Auricularia, Betula, Bisporella, Boletus, Bonderzewia, Cantharellus, Cerrena, Clitocybe, Coenocybe, Collybia,Coltricia, Coprinellus, Coprinus, Cortinarius, Craterellus, Crepidotus, Cystoderma, Daedaleopsis, Entoloma, Exidia, Fomes, Fomitopsis, Galerina, Ganoderma, Gloeophyllum, Gymnopus, Gyromitra, Hebeloma, Helvella, Hydrochaete, Hygrocybe, Inocybe, Laccaria, Lentinus, Lepiota, Marasmus, Mycena, Omphalotus, Peziza, Pleurotus, Psathyrella, Schizophyllum,Scutellinia, Tapinella, Tramates and Tyromyces. This study therefore shows that the Cross River National Park (Oban Hills Division) is home to a variety of wild mushrooms.

    Opis:
    The inhibitory properties of the ethanolic and methanolic leaf extracts of Vernonia amygdalina and Cola acuminata on the fungal pathogens isolated from infected tomato fruits were investigated. The pathogens were Fusarium moniliformes and Rhizopus stolonifer. Various concentrations of the extracts ranging from 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90 and 100% were separately added to PDA media. The fungal pathogens were separately inoculated into the media and incubated for seven days. Antifungal effects of these extracts on the mycelia growth of the pathogens were significant at P<0.05 for all treatments at higher concentrations. At 10-50% concentration, ethanolic and methanolic extracts of Vernonia amygdalina and Cola acuminata had no significant effect on the mycelia growth of Fusarium moniliformes and Rhizopus stolonifer after seven days observation period. At 60-100% concentrations, the two pathogens were completely inhibited by ethanolic extracts of Vernonia amygdalina and Cola acuminata. Methanolic extracts of Vernonia amygdalina and Cola acuminata inhibited completely Fusarium moniliformes and Rhizopus stolonifer at 80-100% concentrations. The in vitro inhibitory effects of these extracts at higher concentrations indicated that they can be used for the control of tomato fruit rot. It may be necessary to use them in prolonging the shelf-life of fresh tomato fruit and some other fruits.

    Opis:
    The antifungal activity of the ethanolic and aqueous fruit extracts of Zingiber officinale, Tetrapleura tetraptera, Garcinia kola and Cola nitida on the green rot fungus (Penicillium sp.) isolated from infected groundnut (Arachis hypogaea) seeds in storage were investigated in vitro. Various concentrations of the aqueous and ethanolic fruit extract ranging from 5g/100ml, 10g/100ml, and 15g/100ml were separately added to Potato Dextrose Agar (PDA) media. The fungus was inoculated into the media and incubated for seven days. Results of the in vitro studies showed that the ethanolic extracts had a significant inhibitory effect (p<0.05) on the radial growth of Penicillium sp. at all levels of concentration tested. Complete inhibition of the fungus was at 15g/100ml of ethanolic extracts of Garcinia kola and Tetrapleura tetraptera. The aqueous extracts showed less inhibitory effect as compared to the ethanolic extracts. The effective inhibition of ethanolic extracts as compared to the aqueous extracts may be attributed to the efficiency of the extraction solvent on the phytochemical content of the plant extracts. The application of botanical extracts for disease management could be less expensive, easily available, non-polluting and ecofriendly. The ethanolic fruit extracts of Garcinia kola and Tetrapleura tetraptera at the higher concentrations can be produced in large quantities and used as spray in controlling the green rot fungus of Arachis hypogaea in storage.
