Road Blockades During the Pandemic: Indigenous Citizenship and New Territoriality
Short Abstract In the Peruvian Amazon, the blocking of land and river routes has become an increasingly common strategy among indigenous groups to exercise active citizenship. The adoption of this protest tactic during the pandemic raises two central questions: First, what socio‐political and cultural factors shaped this collective action? Second, what

Animal–Plant Interactions Under Defaunation: Consequences for Amazonian Trees of Commercial Interest
We experimentally investigated the effects of medium‐ and large‐sized mammal defaunation on the removal and fate of seeds from economically important forest species in Amazonian forests. Our results show that mammal exclusion significantly reduced seed removal, although the magnitude of this effect varied among plant species.

Minimum number of measurements for evaluating Bertholletia excelsa.
Repeatability studies on fruit species are of great importance to identify the minimum number of measurements necessary to accurately select superior genotypes. This study aimed to identify the most efficient method to estimate the repeatability coefficient (r) and predict the minimum number of measurements needed for a more accurate evaluation of ...

Trees can redirect large volumes of rainwater to the base of their stems. This stemflow not only redistributes water but also channels canopy‐derived solutes to the forest floor. Building on research showing canopy geometry and bark properties govern stemflow volumes, we examined how those same traits modulate the biogeochemical side of this flux. Over

Genetic diversity of Bertholletia excelsa, an Amazonian species of wide distribution [PDF]
Background Amazonian upland forests are expansive and can comprise large continuous tracts. There have been several studies on the population genetic structure of species in this kind of forest, but there are few studies that aim to understand genetic structure throughout the Amazon [1].
