Abstract

Mango (Mangifera indica L.), regarded as the "king of fruits," holds a critical position in the Nigerian diet, ranking second only to banana in terms of consumption. This study was conducted to assess the morphometric diversity of mango in Lagos and Ogun States, located in Southwest Nigeria. A total of forty mango varieties were analyzed, comprising twenty accessions collected from different locations within each state. Morphological evaluation was based on the International Plant Genetic Resources Institute (IPGRI) descriptors for mango. Both qualitative and quantitative morphological traits, including leaf, inflorescence, and fruit characteristics, were systematically assessed through field observations and laboratory analyses. Significant variability was recorded among the mango accessions, particularly in qualitative traits such as immature leaf color, leaf shape, inflorescence axis structure, flower color, flower type, fruit shape, fruit skin color, and fruit skin texture. The observed morphological diversity highlights the genetic richness present in the mango populations of the studied regions, offering valuable insights for future breeding and conservation programs.

Abstract

Goat Weed (Ageratum conyzoides L.) is a tropical medicinal herb traditionally employed for wound healing, fever reduction, and inflammation management. This review consolidates evidence confirming its antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and wound-healing properties, primarily attributed to bioactive constituents such as precocenes, flavonoids, and terpenoids. Despite its pharmacological promise, the presence of pyrrolizidine alkaloids presents hepatotoxicity risks, underscoring the need for standardized formulations. Studies highlight its efficacy against various pathogens, its capacity to modulate inflammatory pathways (TNF-α/NF-κB), and its ability to stimulate collagen production during wound repair. Beyond therapeutic applications, A. conyzoides exhibits potential as a natural herbicide and biopesticide. Future research priorities include well-structured clinical trials, nanoformulation development to improve bioavailability, and biotechnological approaches for optimized production.

Abstract

This study examines the impact of instructional materials on Biology students’ cognitive achievement in Lagos State, Nigeria, using a quasi-experimental design with 140 SS1 students from public secondary schools. Results revealed that students taught with instructional materials (mean post-test score = 24.76) significantly outperformed those taught conventionally (mean = 18.51), with notable pre-test to post-test gains (11.19 vs. 10.54). Gender analysis showed no significant difference in achievement, underscoring universal efficacy. The findings affirm that instructional materials enhance engagement, comprehension, and retention, advocating their prioritized integration in science education to address resource gaps and improve academic outcomes. Stakeholders are urged to invest in teacher training and material provision to bolster Biology education in Nigerian schools.
