“…It is a shrub or small to medium‐sized tree growing in grassland and open woodland up to 2700 m above sea level (Mikkelsen and Seberg, 2001 ). Bersama abyssinica is locally named ‘Azamir’ in Amharic and Lolchissa in Afan Oromo (Mossie & Urge, 2022 ). In folk medicine, the leaves, bark and root of B. abyssinica are widely used in traditional medicine for the treatment of infectious diseases such as diarrhoea, bovine mastitis, rabies, wound, fever, eye disease, tumour/cancer amoebiasis and urinary tract infections (Ayalew et al., 2022 ; Famuyide et al., 2019 ).…”
