Impact of Climate Change on the Potential Distribution of Macaúba (Acrocomia aculeata, Acrocomia totai, Acrocomia intumescens) in Brazil

open access: yesGCB Bioenergy, Volume 18, Issue 8, August 2026.
Climate change is projected to drive contrasting responses among Brazilian macaúba palms, ranging from relative stability and expansion to severe suitability loss. Ensemble ecological distribution models identified Acrocomia intumescens as highly vulnerable, while A.

Habitat‐based spatial patterns enable realistic reconstruction of plant spatial arrangements across complex landscapes

open access: yesOikos, Volume 2026, Issue 7, July 2026.
Spatially explicit individual‐based models provide a powerful way to explore spatial dynamics when direct observation is not feasible. But for many ecological applications, these models require detailed data on the initial spatial arrangement and traits of individuals – information rarely available in large, heterogeneous or novel landscapes.

Mating system analysis of Açaí-do-Amazonas (Euterpe precatoria Mart.) using molecular markers

open access: yesCrop Breeding and Applied Biotechnology, 2019
Euterpe precatoria (Açaí-do-Amazonas) produces fruits of which the fresh pulp is consumed. It is almost exclusively collected by extractivist farmers, because no selected genotypes are available for the establishment of plantations. For the domestication

Why do understorey Licuala palm fruits turn from red to white and then black when ripe?

open access: yesEcology and Evolution
Licuala ferruginea Becc., a tropical forest understorey palm, is observed to have fruits that appear red in colour when unripe, turning pink, then white, purple and finally black in colour as they ripen.
