    "description": "Dalbergia cochinchinensis, the Thailand rosewood, Siamese rosewood, or tracwood, (Thai: พะยูง: Phayung ; Vietnamese: Trắc (or Cẩm lai nam bộ); Khmer: ក្រញូង: Kranhung ; Lao: ກະຍູງ: Kayung ; Chinese: 酸枝木: Suān zhī mù ) is a species of legume in the family Fabaceae.\nIt is a tree yielding valuable hardwood found in Cambodia, Laos, Thailand, and Vietnam. In 2022 its status was re-evaluated as Critically Endangered caused by illegal logging and smuggling. Conservationists project that the species could be extinct within 10 years (by 2026).\nDue to its pioneering characteristics, drought tolerance, and nitrogen-fixing ability, it shows potential for restoring degraded forests and deforested sites. Therefore, sustainable plantation of the tree can serve both goals of conservation and forest landscape restoration.\nUniversity of Oxford published the transcriptomes of Dalbergia cochinchinensis and five other Dalbergia spp. It was found that D. cochinchinensis had fewer R genes than the co-occurring Dalbergia oliveri.",
