Due to the increased pressure on the ecosystem, as a result of the increase in Nigerian population (140million), the valued forest tree spices are facing the threat of extinction caused by high rates of urbanization, deforestation, etc which resulted in the large-scale destruction of the natural forests that are rich sources of plants used as spices locally (Adelaja and Fasidi 2008), hence the need for seed security and domestication for sustainability.Affiliations
