Structural colour from a helicoidal cellulose architecture in the secondary cell wall: Optical properties, cell wall composition, structure and morphology of components, and their assembly and interactions.
… in different tissues of plants, such as in the endocarp of the fruit of $\textit{Margaritaria nobilis}$, an eudicot, and in the fronds of $\textit{Microsorum thailandicum}$, a fern. In this thesis, I studied the optical response and anatomical features of the adaxial and abaxial epidermal layers …

Seed and vegetative propagation methods for the rare Florida native species Chionanthus pygmaeus (pygmy fringetree)
… the species’ native range. Treatments included endocarp removal, sulfuric acid, boiling-water, and smoke-water treatments. Prior to treatment initiation, seed viability was estimated to be 12%. Treated seeds went through two cold- and two warm-stratification periods of 4°C and 25°C, …

In vitro evaluation of nutritional content and anthelmintic values of Kigelia africana fruit to domesticated ruminants
… from the sausage fruits; 1. Exocarp (Ex), 2. Endocarp (En), 3. Endocarp plus seeds (En+SS), 4. Seeds (SS) and 5. Whole fruit (Wf). The nutritional value of feed portions was determined by measuring their chemical composition and the force required to break-open the fruit (shear force). For …
