Complex multitrophic species interactions and fitness costs: Intricate consequences of jasmonate and salicylate induced plant defences

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
This study reveals how long‐term activation of jasmonic and salicylic acid signalling reshapes arthropod communities and plant fitness across seasons. By showing that induced defences generate contrasting outcomes and cascading trade‐offs across trophic levels, it challenges the assumption that induced resistance is uniformly beneficial in natural ...

Biologia floral e polinização por abelhas em siratro (Macroptilium atropurpureum Urb.)

Acta Scientiarum: Animal Sciences, 2008
Cette recherche a été réalisée pour évaluer la pollinisation chez le siratro en étudiant la période d'anthèse, la viabilité des grains de pollen et la production de graines. Deux traitements ont été utilisés, l'un couvert et l'autre découvert. La période d'anthèse était de 2,48 jours et de 3,56 jours (p = 0,0001) et la production était de 8,62 et 11,15

The collective application of shorebird tracking data to conservation

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Addressing urgent conservation issues, such as the drastic declines of North American migratory birds, requires creative, evidence‐based, efficient, and collaborative approaches. The abundance of over 50% of monitored North American shorebird populations has declined by over 50% since 1980. To address these declines, we developed a partnership

Taxonomic and functional diversity of urban bees of the world

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Bees play a pivotal role in terrestrial environments. Urbanization can affect these organisms and the ecosystem services they provide. However, knowledge of the global diversity of urban bees is limited. Thus, we summarized data on urban bee species identities and occurrences; compared distributions of all bees with those found in urban ...

Biologia floral de Cleistes macrantha (Barb. Rodr.) Schltr. (Orchidaceae: Vanilloideae: Pogoniinae) [PDF]

Revista Brasileira de Botânica, 2003
Cleistes macrantha (Barb. Rodr.) Schltr. is widely distributed in Atlantic rain forests in south and southeastern Brazil, occurring in anthropogenic disturbed areas and in "restinga" vegetation. Aspects of the floral biology of C. macrantha were investigated in the Intervales nature reserve, in the interior of Sao Paulo state.

Evaluating the protection status and exposure to warming of Caribbean reefs with high functional potential

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Over the past decades, climate change has emerged as a major threat to global biodiversity, negatively affecting the integrity and functioning of ecosystems and the benefits they provide to people. To mitigate these impacts, it is essential to identify climate refugia that support the persistence of the structure and function of reef ...

Biologia floral de Solanum seaforthianum Andr. (Solanaceae)

CONTRIBUCIONES A LAS CIENCIAS SOCIALES
Solanum L. trata-se do gênero mais robusto de Solanaceae e embora uma quantidade representativa de seus membros seja considerada invasora, muitos de seus representantes permanecem incompreendidos do ponto de vista reprodutivo. Estudos da biologia floral são importantes para a compreensão dos aspectos ecológicos e funcionais, assim como dos eventos que ...
