“…Parallel to this demographic study, participatory observations and field surveys were conducted in 1998 to assess the effect of traditional bark extraction practices on individual tree survival and vitality in the study site (Guedje, 2002;Guedje and Fankap, 2001). The main harvest practices tested were: (i) partial debarking of the stem by peeling with a machete or by hammering on tree; (ii) ring-barking of the stem; (iii) felling the tree at approximately 1 m height and then harvesting the bark of the felled tree part.…”

“…La pharmacopée camerounaise est riche en raison de la diversité des groupes humains, des langues, des coutumes et surtout des caractéristiques écologiques des régions. Les différents systèmes de soins mis en place, ont fait preuve d'une efficacité durable et inoffensive pour la santé de l'Homme, mais aussi des animaux domestiques (Guedje et Fankap, 2001). Dans la région du Littoral, l'exploitation des produits forestiers non ligneux intéresse de nombreuses personnes démunies et sans-emploi (Priso et al, 2011).…”

Objective: In order to contribute to the knowledge of medicinal plants used for diseases treatments and symptoms affecting rural populations of the Sanaga Maritime division, ethnobotanical and ethno pharmacological investigations have been carried. Methodology and results: Only people aged between 29-70 years with a confirmed knowledge of medicinal plants and their usage in curing and willing to take part of the study have been interviewed. The study realized in 94 homes allowed making an inventory of 94 vegetable species belonging to 92 genera and 54 families. The most representative were Fabaceae, Euphorbiaceae and Asteraceae respectively 9 and 6 for the two others. Among those species, 10 genera have been the most representative namely: Aframomum, Alchornea, Allium, Carica, Citrus, Entandrophragma, Ocimum, Solanum, Urera and Vernonia in the following proportions 14% for Allium and Ocimum and 9% for others. Ecological parameters of plants species allowed the identification of 12 types of biotopes with 28.85% species harvested and 21.15% species of primary forests. Sixteen phytogeographical types have been listed to with 24.04% of "pantropicales", 20.19% "Afro tropicales" and 19.23% "guineo congolaises". Exploited species have been in majority herbaceous 37.50%, followed respectively by trees and shrubs with 29.81% and 27.88%. Sarcochores and Slerochores were the high majority of diaspores with the following proportions 43.27% and 13.46%. Decoction and maceration have been the preparation method most used by traditional practitioners with 27.46% and 23.94%. The oral route was the most used for the administration of medicinal plants recipes. 80 recipes have been retained for the treatment of diseases and symptoms affecting people of this division. The consensus factor permitted to confirm that troubles caused by protozoa and mycoses were raging in that division with 0.71 and 0.50 respectively. Have been identified as secondary metabolites: alkaloids, flavonoids, coumarins, phenols, tannins, saponins and terpenoids. Leaves represented the most used part for the preparation of recipes. Conclusion and applications of results:The usage of medicinal plants by African people and others in the world for the multiple diseases pushed researchers to explore this way to find new molecules.

“…Indeed, seeds are sought for their stimulating effects, aphrodisiacs, bad cholesterol cleaners and liver protectors [1]. Seeds are also used in drugs to treat multiple gastrointestinal and pulmonary conditions [2] [3]. Thus G. kola is used as a remedy for the treatment of diseases such as diarrhoea, laryngitis, gonorrhoea, headaches and gastritis: Garcinia kola bark is also used as a purgative [4].…”

The purpose of this study is to determine the morphological diversity and distribution of Garcinia kola Heckel (Clusiaceae) in two preferential agroecological growth areas in Côte d'Ivoire, for the sustainable management of the species. Ninety-four (94) trees of G. kola were sampled in Affery (south) and Biankouma (west) and characterized on the basis of 13 quantitative characteristics of the fruit, the general appearance of a plant, leaves and seeds. This study revealed the existence of very significant variability and differences within the trees sampled for most characteristics. Very strong correlations were found among the characteristics of the fruits. On the basis of these characteristics, it emerged that the fruits of the Biankouma area are larger than those of Affery. Multivariate analyses show that diversity is structured with tree distribution into four distinct groups based on the following discriminating characteristics: fruit height (Hfr), leaf width (largF), seed mass (Mgr) and trunk diameter (Dm). These parameters can be used as a basis for selecting and maintaining the high variability of G. kola. Analysis of the geographical distribution of trees, based on the nearest neighbour model, revealed an aggregate distribution in both areas.
