Although condensed tannins (CTs) are known to reduce forage intake by mammalian herbivores in controlled experiments, few studies have tested these effects in the field. Thus the role of CTs on foraging ecology of free-ranging herbivores is inadequat

Livestock production by smallholder farmers in southern Africa is often constrained by insufficient fodder during the dry season. The aim of this study was to determine if inclusion of pigeon pea (Cajanus cajan (L.) Millsp.) hedgerows in Megathyrsus

Tree pruning is a management tool in agroforestry systems for reducing shade, enhancing nutrient cycling or providing fodder. However, little information is available on the effect of pruning management on plant growth, nonstructural carbohydrate (NS

The occurrence of Dalbergia obovata, which is typically associated with forests, in grasslands within conservation areas in a metropolitan municipality was investigated to assess whether it was enc...

Inadequate nutrition limits small-scale livestock production by smallholder farmers in South Africa but can be addressed by the introduction of woody fodder species. Cutting woody plants to harvest fodder affects their productivity and thus it is nec

In contrast to understanding spinescence in savanna woody species, little is known about the functions of plant secondary metabolites (PSM). Negative effects of PSMs on individual animal performance potentially translate into negative effects on herb

Allocation of carbon to growth and defences in plants is affected by resource availability and herbivory, two determinants of woody plant abundance in savannas. Both factors are critical at the sapling stage of woody plants, yet their combined effect

Encroachment into the moist coastal grasslands within eThekwini Municipality by Dalbergia obovata, an indigenous forest liana that forms dense monospecific stands, poses a potential biodiversity threat. Identification of the mechanisms of D. obovata

Woody species, especially dinitrogen-fixing species, can provide multiple products including food, fuelwood and fodder. In cut-and-carry silvopastoral systems, woody trees are often severely pruned...
