Nitrogen nutrition of bromeliads

2001
Epiphytic bromeliads have no contact with the pedosphere, so they need to withdraw their nutrients from the atmosphere as well as from the host tree and animal debris, while terrestrial bromeliads, as Ananas comosus, generally depend on the soil as the main nutrient source.

Bromeliad Phytotoxicity Evaluations, California, 1981

Insecticide and Acaricide Tests, 1982
Abstract Five insecticides were tested on bromeliads in the genus Tillandsia for phytotoxic effects. This genus was selected because it is the most common bromeliad marketed commercially and due to its known sensitivity to insecticides.

Strategies for the Micropropagation of Bromeliads

2009
Bromeliads are tropical plants that are native to the Americas with a wide distribution in the rain forests, deserts and coastal areas. They are mostly epiphytes and terrestrial, diverse and important from the ecological point of view, they are found in microhabitats in strong interactions with fauna.

Bromeliad treefrogs as phoretic hosts of ostracods

Naturwissenschaften, 2014
Aquatic organisms can use many methods of dispersal among discrete freshwater habitats, and phoresy is an important but poorly understood mechanism. Tank bromeliads are small and unconnected habitats used by many animals, and some of them use phoresy for dispersal. Ostracods living in bromeliads used treefrogs as phoretic hosts for dispersal.

Bromeliad‐associated Reductions in Host Herbivory: Do Epiphytic Bromeliads Act as Commensalists or Mutualists?

Biotropica, 2013
AbstractMany members of the family Bromeliacae are able to adopt epiphytic lifestyles and colonize trees throughout the Neotropics. Bromeliacae do not extract nutrients from their hosts and confer relatively minor costs on their host plants. We suggest that bromeliads, however, may benefit their hosts by providing habitat for predators of host plant ...

Bromeliad Malaria in Trinidad, British West Indies

The American Journal of Tropical Medicine, 1946
Summary Lutz (1903) first considered the possibility that anopheline mosquitoes of the subgenus Kerteszia might be involved in malaria transmission. He concluded, on epidemiological grounds, that Anopheles lutzi Theobald (= cruzi D. & K.) was a vector in Sao Paulo.
