Abundance Of Parkia Biglobosa And Woody Species Composition In Protected And Unprotected Forest Of Southern Kano State Nigeria
This research aimed to determine the abundance of Parkia biglobosa and woody plants composition between protected Falgore Game Reserve (FGR) and unprotected Massu-Dagora Forest (MDF) in Southern Kano, Nigeria. The main objectives of the research were to estimate the abundance of P. biglobosa between...
