Gastroprotective effect of the Mapuche crude drug Araucaria araucana resin and its main constituents

open access: yesJournal of Ethnopharmacology, 2005
The resin from the tree Araucaria araucana (Araucariaceae) has been used since pre-columbian times by the Mapuche amerindians to treat ulcers. The gastroprotective effect of the resin was assessed in the ethanol-HCl-induced gastric ulcer in mice showing a dose-dependent gastroprotective activity at 100, 200 and 300 mg/kg per os.

Efectos de la producción de semillas y la heterogeneidad vegetal sobre la supervivencia de semillas y el patrón espacio-temporal de establecimiento de plántulas en Araucaria araucana Araucaria araucana temporal and spatial seedling establishment patterns: masting, seed predation and understory vegetation effects

open access: yesRevista Chilena de Historia Natural, 2009
El establecimiento de plántulas puede estar limitado por la producción de semillas y asociada a la producción intermitente y sincronizada de semillas (masting) y/o por granivoría, o por falta de micrositios aptos para la germinación y crecimiento de las ...

Developmental timing in the female reproductive cycle of Araucaria araucana : seasonality and evolutionary perspectives

open access: yesAnnals of Botany
Abstract Background and Aims Shifts in the timing and rate of reproductive development have played a central role in plant evolution, often being shaped by seasonal climates. Araucariaceae provides a valuable opportunity to study developmental timing across climates: while most species inhabit ...

Araucaria araucana and the Austral parakeet: pre-dispersal seed predation on a masting species El pehuén y la cachaña: depredación predispersión de una especie "masting"

open access: yesRevista Chilena de Historia Natural, 2008
Pre-dispersal seed predation by Austral parakeets, Enicognathus ferrugineus, on pehuén, Araucaria araucana, was studied to assess the relationship between predation and seed production. We collected falling seeds in four araucaria forests of southwestern

Branch whorls of juvenile Araucaria araucana (Molina) Koch: are they formed annually? Los verticilos de juveniles de Araucaria araucana (Molina) Koch: ¿son formados anualmente?

open access: yesRevista Chilena de Historia Natural, 2000
The growth of Araucaria araucana, like that of many other conifers, is characterised by the production of a monopodial stem with branch whorls. However, the periodicity of whorl formation in this species has not been subjected to systematic study.
