    Abstract:

    Abstract Ethnopharmacological relevance Parkia biglobosa seeds are used to treat diabetes and complications hence this study. Aim This study investigated the effects of Parkia biglobosa aqueous seed extract on some biochemical, haematological and histopathological indices in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats. Materials and methods Wistar rats of either sex (180–300 g) were fasted overnight and diabetes mellitus induced using streptozotocin 40 mg/kg IP. Diabetes mellitus (fasting blood glucose ≥ 200 mg/dl) was confirmed 48 h later. The rats were randomly grouped into six groups (n = 5): Group 1 (diabetic untreated control), group 2 (Parkia biglobosa 200 mg/kg), group 3 (Parkia biglobosa 400 mg/kg). group 4 (Parkia biglobosa 800 mg/kg), group 5 (glibenclamide 5 mg/kg as standard drug control) and group 6 (normoglycaemic control). They were treated daily. Acute toxicity study and phytochemical screening were also performed. Fourteen days later, they were sacrificed under chloroform anaesthesia. Vital organs (kidneys, liver and pancreas) and blood samples were obtained for histopathological, biochemical and haematological analysis. Results Parkia biglobosa aqueous seed extract at the various doses caused significant (P  Conclusion These data suggest that Parkia biglobosa ameliorates biochemical, haematological and histopathological changes associated with diabetes mellitus.

  • Transferability of Some Nuclear Microsatellite (SSRs) Markers from Related Species in Parkia biglobosa
    Journal of Plant Sciences, 2019

    Abstract:

    Molecular DNA markers, particularly microsatellites (SSRs), are important tools for plant genetic resources characterization. The present study examined the transferability of nine polymorphic microsatellite markers developed for Parkia panurensis in Parkia biglobosa from Northern Benin, favorite area of Parkia biglobosa. Fourty (40) accessions have been considered. Five microsatellite loci (Parpan 3, Parpan 4, Parpan 9, Parpan 13 and Parpan 15) showed good amplifications in Parkia biglobosa. The size of the amplified markers, ranging from 100 to 200 bases pairs, was similar to those previously reported. Forest tree species are too numerous to benefit all a significant investment in molecular biology. Also, the present study has shown that the transfer of markers between species is possible. The transferability is possible for the species Parkia biglobosa, too. The microsatellites identified in this study are important to analyse the genetic structure and diversity of natural populations of Parkia biglobosa in Benin particularly and in the world generally. They are also important to analyse the evolution of species with phylogeny construction, to analyse the genome with its applications in genetic improvement and genetic identification of given material. For these different studies, the microsatellites of the present study could be completed to those defined for Parkia biglobosa.

    Abstract:

    Abstract Background of the study : Molecular DNA markers, particularly microsatellites (SSRs), are important tools for plant genetic resources characterization. Although developed for some other Parkia species, no SSRs have been so far designed for Parkia biglobosa , an important food woody species in Africa. Methods and key results : The present study examines the transferability of nine polymorphic microsatellite markers developed for Parkia panurensis Benth. ex H. C. Hopkins in Parkia biglobosa . Five microsatellite loci (Parpan 3, Parpan 4, Parpan 9, Parpan 13 and Parpan 15) showed good amplifications in Parkia biglobosa . The size of the amplified markers, ranging from 100 to 200 base pairs, was similar to those previously reported. Conclusion : The microsatellites identified in this study are important for ongoing studies designed to analyse the genetic structure and diversity of natural populations of Parkia biglobosa in Northern Benin.

  • Ethnic differences in use values and use patterns of Parkia biglobosa in Northern Benin.
    Journal of ethnobiology and ethnomedicine, 2011
    Co-Authors: Kourouma Koura, Jean Cossi Ganglo, Achille Ephrem Assogbadjo, Clément Agbangla
    Abstract:

    Background African locust bean tree (Parkia biglobosa) is a multipurpose species used widely in arid Africa by local communities. The present study focused on ethnic differences in use values and use patterns of P. biglobosa in Northern Benin, where the species widely grows. The use values according to the various ethnic groups in the study area have been evaluated in detail for P. biglobosa.
