Tree databases: agroforestree database, tree seed suppliers directory and botanic nomenclature

The Tree Domestication Programme of the World Agroforestry Centre has developed a number of databases to promote the better use of trees in agroforestry systems. The Agroforestree Database provides information on the management, use and ecology of a wide range of tree species which can be used in agroforestry systems. The Tree Seed Suppliers Directory lists suppliers of seed and microsymbionts for over 5900 tree species. The Botanic Nomenclature Database provides information on the correct taxonomy of trees, including synonyms and common names of over 8000 species. The three databases are linked with common formats.
