摘要: In Nigeria, deforestation, which leads to tremendous loss of biodiversity, is well advanced and about 90% its rain forest has already been cleared. The Nigerian environment also beset with many other problems including a food crisis. To address these research project on “Development Utilization some endangered edible species South-eastern Nigeria” was sponsored by World Wildlife Fund, Washington D.C. Project investigated chemical evaluation, formulation new products ex-situ conservation techniques 16 study produced significant results in each aspects.
