Domestication potential of Marula (Sclerocarya birrea subsp caffra)in South Africa and Namibia: 1. Phenotypic variation in fruit traits (2005, background): “other indigenous fruit trees, such as Irvingia gabonensis Atangana et al. 2001, 2002; Anegbeh et al. 2003.”
Agroforestry Tree Products (AFTPs): Targeting Poverty Reduction and Enhanced Livelihoods (2005, background): “…variation in a range of fruit and nut traits to determine the potential for highly productive and qualitatively superior cultivars with a high Harvest Index (e.g. Anegbeh et al., 2003, 2004; Atangana et al., 2001, 2002; Leakey et al., 2002, 2005c; Ngo Mpeck et al., 2003b; Waruhiu et al., 2004).”
Evidence that subsistence farmers have domesticated indigenous fruits (Dacryodes edulis and Irvingia gabonensis) in Cameroon and Nigeria (2004, background): “…Leakey et al. 2000; Atangana et al. 2001 and Nigeria Anegbeh et al. in press and in prep , and examined opportunities for multi-trait selection, based on the definition of ideotypes for I. gabonensis Leakey et al. 2000; Atangana et al. 2002 and for D. edulis Waruhiu 1999; Leakey et al. 2002 .”
