BIOLOGICAL RATIONALITY AND CLASSROOM IMPLICATIONS

open access: yesTravessias, 2014
The subject proposed in this article appears as an interesting factor of discussion in courses of Biology teachers formation, in view of the doubleness of the biologist formation: bachelor and/or licentiate.

Floral resource diversity drives spatiotemporal variation in plant–pollinator network structure

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Mechanisms underlying community assembly, including those related to species interactions, vary across space and time. Plant–pollinator networks exemplify these dynamics, where link rewiring and turnover mediate adaptations to environmental changes. Bees rely on diverse floral resources (e.g.

Inconsistent effects of P enrichment and predator presence on food‐web dynamics in a bromeliad system

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Food webs consist of trophic interactions of variable strength. However, it remains challenging to predict how changes in environmental conditions, such as nutrient enrichment, can affect these interactions. In this paper, we propose to integrate food web theory with ecological stoichiometry, which predicts how elemental ratios affect trophic ...

FROM NATURAL HISTORY TO BIOLOGY: THE CONCEPT OF LIFE IN SCHOOLBOOKS

open access: yesTravessias, 2009
The present work mainly aims to accomplish a genealogical study on life concept under the thought of french philosopher Michel Foucault. The idea of this article is to cast a look at Natural Sciense and Biology textbooks ever seeking to observe how life ...

Floral trait similarity at the community‐level increases reproductive success suggesting facilitation through pollinator sharing

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
The ability of plants to attract pollinators is context‐dependent, influenced by floral traits, abundance, and resources from the plant community. Indirect interactions through shared pollinators, from competition to facilitation, may lead to varied reproductive outputs in plants, and the mechanisms behind these interactions remain to be fully ...

From maps to mandates: Multitemporal vegetation cover analysis as a tool to evaluate environmental judicial decisions

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract This study examines the use of multitemporal vegetation cover analysis as a tool to assess the ecological effectiveness of judicial decisions that recognize the rights of nature, using Colombia's 2016 T‐622 decision on the Atrato River as a case study.

Repositories of biocultural diversity: Toward best practices for empowering ethnobotany in digital herbaria

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Societal Impact Statement As herbaria digitize millions of plant specimens, ethnobotanical information associated with them is becoming increasingly accessible. These biocultural data include plant uses, names, and/or management practices of Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities (IPLCs).

Life after herbarium digitisation: Physical and digital collections, curation and use

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Societal Impact Statement Collections of dried plant specimens (herbaria) provide an invaluable resource for the study of many areas of scientific interest and conservation globally. Digitisation increases access to specimens and metadata, enabling efficient use across a broad spectrum of research.
