IMPORTANCE TO LIVESTOCK AND WILDLIFE : 
Desert apricot has little or no value to browsing animals.  Tannic acids
and cyanogenic glucosides in the leaves discourage consumption.
Extrafloral nectaries attract a variety of insects, particularly wasps
and ants, to the leaves.  The presence of these insects further
discourages browsing [8,14].
