Managing genetic variation in tropical trees: linking knowledge with action in agroforestry ecosystems for improved conservation and enhanced livelihoods (2009, background): “…is maximised in agricultural landscapes farmers will not engage in tree cultivation and silviculture, they will not maintain or enhance the range and quality of tree species that are found on farms, and valuable contributions for livelihoods and conservation will be lost (Atta-Krah et al. 2004).”
Relationships among different geographical groups, agro-morphology, fatty acid composition and RAPD marker diversity in Safflower (Carthamus tinctorius) (2009, background): “In the past, genetic diversity studies in crop plants mostly relied on the evaluation of morphological and agronomic traits (Upadhyaya et al. 2002; Atta-Krah et al. 2004).”
Tree Diversity in Western Kenya: Using Profiles to Characterise Richness and Evenness (2006, background): “In the realm of agroforestry, underpinning the need for diversification is the desire to enhance the stability and productivity of agroecosystems (ICRAF 1997; Atta-Krah et al. 2004).”
