Bacteriome Diversity of Soil Islands Associated With Bromeliads From Ironstone Outcrops in the Brazilian Pantanal. [PDF]

Int J Microbiol
Knowledge about the diversity and distribution of microorganisms in natural environments is essential for understanding the dominant microbial groups and predicting their ecological functions. This study is aimed at describing the bacteriome diversity in soils associated with bromeliads in the Brazilian Pantanal region, utilizing genomic approaches. We

Canalized to heat, plastic to cold: adaptive coordination of leaf and seed strategies in populations spanning an elevational gradient. [PDF]

New Phytol
Summary In tropical mountains, surviving temperature extremes demands finely tuned strategies. We investigated how populations of the bromeliad Pitcairnia flammea across a 2200 m elevational gradient balance genetic canalization and plasticity, and whether thermal strategies are coordinated between seeds and leaves.

The role of bromeliad structural complexity on the presence, spatial distribution and predator avoidance in Tityus neglectus (Scorpiones: Buthidae). [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Due to remarkable architectural design featuring rosette‐like leaf arrangements, bromeliads serve as habitats for various species. Bromeliad architecture is a key factor in the spatial distribution and occurrence of the Tityus neglectus scorpion. Furthermore, T.

Linking environmental adaptation and genetic structure to the biogeography of flower colour lineages in Lysimachia monelli (Primulaceae). [PDF]

Plant Biol (Stuttg)
Flower colour differences in the Mediterranean plant Lysimachia monelli are linked to distinct genetic lineages with geographic separation and varying environmental niches. Abstract Reproductive traits such as flower colour can have a profound influence on the diversification of plant species, making understanding their evolutionary ramifications one ...

Ecology of the bromeligenous frog Phyllodytes luteolus (Anura, Hylidae) from three restinga remnants across Brazil's coast

Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2016
In this study, we analyzed diet, sexual dimorphism and bromeliad use in three populations of the hylid frog Phyllodytes luteolus from restinga habitats along the Brazilian coast. We found 13 arthropods categories in 161 stomachs.
