Measuring congruence between available and selected vegetation at wild turkey nest sites

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, Volume 49, Issue S1, December 2025.
We evaluated whether female wild turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo ssp.) differentially selected vegetation characteristics on the first day of egg laying across 164 nesting attempts and 492 travel paths. Vegetation conditions at nest sites were commonly available along movement paths, and visual obstruction did not influence nest success, suggesting nest ...

Nitrogen fixation and fertilization have similar effects on biomass allocation in nitrogen‐fixing plants

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2024.
It has long been known that plants adjust allocation to different tissues based on supply of soil nitrogen, but the degree to which nitrogen supplied by symbiotic nitrogen‐fixing bacteria has similar effects on allocation is less well known. Using an experiment with 15 plant species with and without access to symbiotic nitrogen‐fixing bacteria, grown ...

The anti-inflammatory and antinociceptive effects of proteins extracted from Acacia farnesiana seeds

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Plantas Medicinais, 2016
Seeds of Acacia farnesiana are commonly sold in the local markets of northeastern Brazil as a therapeutic agent. The present work aimed to evaluate the anti-inflammatory and analgesic activities of proteins obtained from A. farnesiana seeds.

Evolutionary history and root trait coordination predict nutrient strategy in tropical legume trees

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 243, Issue 5, Page 1711-1723, September 2024.
Summary Plants express diverse nutrient use and acquisition traits, but it is unclear how trait combinations at the species level are constrained by phylogeny, trait coordination, or trade‐offs in resource investment. One trait – nitrogen (N) fixation – is assumed to correlate with other traits and used to define plant functional groups, despite ...

The First Comprehensive Chemical Profiling of Vachellia gummifera (Willd.) Kyal. & Boatwr., a Plant with Medicinal Value

open access: yesChemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 21, Issue 6, June 2024.
Abstract Vachellia gummifera (Willd.) Kyal. & Boatwr. is a medicinal plant endemic to Morocco that has no documented studies on its chemical composition. In this study, the chemical composition of the water/methanol (4 : 1) extracts of air‐dried leaf and stem samples of Moroccan V. gummifera was determined using UHPLC‐MS and NMR.

Molecular Cloning and Expression of a New Allergen of Acacia farnesiana (Aca f 2)

open access: yesIranian Journal of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology, 2015
Inhalation of pollens from different species of Acacia is a common cause of respiratory allergy in tropical areas of the world. Acacia farnesiana is commonly used as street trees in towns and ornamental shade trees in parks and gardens throughout arid ...

First Report of Ravenelia spegazziniana on Acacia farnesiana from Brazil

open access: yesPlant Disease, 2006
Leaves, young branches, and fruits of Acacia farnesiana (L.) Willd. (Fabaceae) that were distorted because of hypertrophy causing witches' brooms and other abnormal growth were collected in the area surrounding the Panteón da Liberdade e da Democracia, Brasilia, Brazil, during August 2005. Uredinia and telia were observed in the symptomatic areas. The

Producción, digestibilidad y rentabilidad en corderos de dietas con vainas de Acacia farnesiana [PDF]

open access: yesArchivos de Zootecnia, 2011
Con el objetivo de evaluar el uso de vainas de Acacia farnesiana en la alimentación de ganado lanar se hizo un experimento con corderos de raza Chiapas en crecimiento, que recibieron dietas (T) isoproteínicas con diferentes niveles de inclusión de vainas: T1= 0, T2= 100, T3= 200, T4= 300 y T5= 400 g/kg (base seca) elaboradas con rastrojo de maíz ...

Selection in the third dimension: Using LiDAR derived canopy metrics to assess individual and population‐level habitat partitioning of ocelots, bobcats, and coyotes

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, Volume 10, Issue 2, Page 264-278, April 2024.
We examined habitat selection of ocelots, bobcats, and coyotes using LiDAR‐derived metrics of vegetation structure. We show differences in selection between species as well as extensive variation among individuals of all three species. Abstract Wildlife depends on specific landscape features to persist.

Floristic diversity of patches generated by protected Ficus ‘trees outside forests’ in agricultural landscapes in Madagascar

open access: yesAfrican Journal of Ecology, Volume 62, Issue 2, February 2024.
Abstract Ficus trees play an important role as key species in both ecological and sociocultural networks in Madagascar. This study focused on species of isolated Ficus growing in agricultural areas adjoining a forest corridor linking the Ranomafana and Andringitra National Parks in east‐central Madagascar, with the aim of understanding the structural ...
