It is mostly susceptible to Phytophthora colocasiae, a leaf blight disease (TLB) causing a 25%-50% loss in yield. The pathogen results not only in reduction in vigor, quality and yield but also constitute a barrier to international exchange of germplasm. The warm, humid days, cool and wet nights of the tropics are ideal for reproduction and…

Biodiversity is Threatened The animals that live in the rainforests and forests are dependant on the many different species that live there. They are also dependant on the trees and plants that grow in their areas. When deforestation happens, it tears away the plants and trees, which in turn, chases away or kills the animals living there. As the habitat is ripped away, the original species living there struggle to live while other species could move in and take over the rest of the land, killing…

One and a half acres of forest is cut down every second. It is estimated that within 100 years there will be no rainforests. Since 70% of the world’s flora and fauna live in forests, these species are rapidly going extinct because of such a high deforestation rate of their habitats. Over 121 natural remedies can be found in the Amazon Rainforest which…

The forest provides not only timber and fuel but also beneficial medicinal herb and other vegetations. Furthermore, the forests can be resting areas to people, and it plays an important role in generating the oxygen, as well as reducing an impact of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
