Learning from Traditional Knowledge of Non-timber Forest Products: Penan Benalui and the Autecology of Aquilaria in Indonesian Borneo
Provedor de dados: Ecology and Society
Autores: Donovan, D. G.; ;; Puri, R. K.; University of Kent; R.K.Puri@kent.ac.uk.
Traditional knowledge, promoted to make conservation and development more relevant and socially acceptable, is shown to have an important role in identifying critical research needs in tropical ecology. Botanists, foresters, and phytochemists, among others, from many countries have sought for decades to understand the process of resin formation in the genus Aquilaria, a tropical forest tree of South and Southeast Asia. Not every tree develops the resin and, despite extensive scientific research, this process remains poorly understood. Attempts at cultivating the valuable aromatic resin, gaharu, have been uneven at best. Thus, gaharu remains largely a natural forest product, increasingly under threat as the trees are overexploited and forest is cleared. In...

Rediscovery of Aquilaria rostrata (Thymelaeaceae), a species thought to be extinct, and notes on Aquilaria conservation in Peninsular Malaysia
Provedor de dados: Naturalis Digital Academic Repository
Autores: Lee, S.Y.; Mohamed, R.
 After more than 100 years since the first discovery, Aquilaria rostrata, a critically endangered species listed in the IUCN Red List and presumably extinct, has been rediscovered in Terengganu State of Peninsular Malaysia. Here, we describe the history, taxonomy, ecology and conservation status of this endemic species, and compare our findings with the species description made from the first and only collection produced prior to this study. In addition, we present the similarities between A. rostrata and several Aquilaria species occurring in Peninsular Malaysia and neighbouring regions using molecular sequence data from the nuclear ribosomal DNA (Internal Transcribed Spacer) and chloroplast intergenic spacer region (trnL-trnF). Our morphological and...

A new species of Aquilaria (Thymelaeaceae) from Vietnam
Provedor de dados: Naturalis Digital Academic Repository
Autores: Cong Kiet, Le; Keßler, P.J.A.; Eurlings, M.
A new species of Aquilaria is described from Vietnam and keys to the flowering and fruiting specimens of all species from this region are provided. DNA sequences of the nrITS1-5.8S-ITS2 region seem to confirm its status as a distinct species.

Agarwood manufacturing: a multidisciplinary opportunity for economy of Bangladesh - a review
Provedor de dados: Agricultural Engineering International : The CIGR e-journal
Autores: Chowdhury, Milon; Hussain, Md. Daulat; Chung, Sun-Ok; Kabir, Ehsanul; Rahman, Afroja.
A variety of methods, ranging from natural to artificial, which have been practiced for producing agarwood and the economic opportunity related with this field in Bangladesh were reviewed. The anatomy of agar tree was also described. Agarwood is the fragrant resin-infused wood derived from the wounded trees of Aquilaria species. It is a valuable non-timber forest product used in fragrances and medicine. Artificial agarwood inducing methods serve as a way to supply agarwood and conserve the wild Aquilaria stock. The existing artificial methods are Nailing, Drilling, Aeration, Agar-wit, Partly-Trunk-Pruning, Burning-Chisel-Drilling, Fungi-Inoculation, etc. The quality of agar mostly depends on the plant species and the fungal species, as well as certain...
