The “Atlantis Forest hypothesis” does not explain Atlantic Forest phylogeography [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2016
Leite et al. (1) conclude that isolation according to the forest refuge hypothesis (FRH) may have had a minor, if any, role on Atlantic Forest (AF) biotic evolution based on genetic data from five mammal species. Their evidence comes from signatures of population expansion during both glacial and interglacial periods, and fragmentation of reconstructed

Seasonal litterfall and nutrients in an Atlantic Forest fragment

Ambiente e Agua - An Interdisciplinary Journal of Applied Science, 2022
Litter dynamics is one of the fundamental processes for the growth and maintenance of native forest fragments, being considered the main pathway for nutrient cycling in forests. Studies on litter production and nutrient content therefore provide insights that provide a better understanding of nutrient dynamics. This study identifies the seasonality and

Phylogeography of the Atlantic Forest

Revista da Biologia, 2018
A filogeografia procura entender os princípios e os processos que governam a distribuição geográfica de linhagens intra-específicas ou de espécies próximas, baseada na distribuição espacial de genealogias gênicas. Estudos filogeográficos de alguns organismos da Mata Atlântica (MA) publicados até o momento têm apontado para a existência de três ...
