These native shrubs and trees are major components of the flora of drier areas of Africa, as well as parts of South America and the southern USA, with a few in Asia. African acacias have been the subject of many studies, and the former Oxford Forestry Institute has published a number of monographs on particular species. These cover practical issues such as diversity of germplasm and methods of The selected plant species should tolerate high salt concentration.
