Abstract(s)
Useful plants and fungi have the potential to satisfy the basic needs of populations
for food, medicine, and phytochemicals, among others, and possibly represent the most
significant ecosystem provision service available for rural communities. Some wild and
semi-cultivated species are traded in local and city markets but only a few have acquired
economic importance. Many of them are important components in agroforestry systems
and are suitable for the sustainable intensification of crop production.
