Browser impacts in Mapungubwe National Park, South Africa: Should we be worried?

Autor: Corli Coetsee, Benjamin J. Wigley

Publikováno v: Koedoe: African Protected Area Conservation and Science, Vol 58, Iss 1, Pp e1-e10 (2016)

This study explores the impact of browsers on vegetation types within the Mapungubwe National Park and specifically whether rocky outcrops or ridges in the park serve as refugia from browsers, particularly elephants. We sampled 80 transects at 20 sit

The role of grazers in determining vegetation community compositions and structuring plant communities is well recognised in grassy systems. The role of browsers in affecting savanna woody plant communities is less clear. We used three long-term excl

A new mark-capture technique involving field applications of Bacillus thuringiensis Berliner (Bt) to study the dispersal of potato tuber moth, Phthorimaea operculella (Zeller) (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae), was investigated as a tool to improve informat
