Viability of Brazilwood seeds (Caesalpinia echinata Lam.) stored at room temperature in controlled atmospheres

Journal of Seed Science, 2015
Seed storage at room temperature is an important and low-cost tool for ex situ conservation. However, the high rates of seed deterioration could reduce the potential for storage in this condition.

Intention of preserving forest remnants among landowners in the Atlantic Forest: The role of the ecological context via ecosystem services

People and Nature, Volume 1, Issue 4, Page 533-547, December 2019., 2019
Abstract Unravelling the psychological processes determining landowners’ support towards forest conservation is crucial, particularly in rural areas of the tropics, where most forest remnants are within private lands. As human–nature connections are known to shape pro‐environmental behaviours, the intention of preserving forest remnants should ...

Global Succulent Biome phylogenetic conservatism across the pantropical Caesalpinia Group (Leguminosae)

New Phytologist, Volume 222, Issue 4, Page 1994-2008, June 2019., 2019
Summary The extent to which phylogenetic biome conservatism vs biome shifting determines global patterns of biodiversity remains poorly understood. To address this question, we investigated the biogeography and trajectories of biome and growth form evolution across the Caesalpinia Group (Leguminosae), a clade of 225 species of trees, shrubs and lianas ...

Gender and Its Role in the Resilience of Local Medical Systems of the Fulni‐ô People in NE Brazil: Effects on Structure and Functionality

Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine, Volume 2019, Issue 1, 2019., 2019
Ethnobotanical studies focused on understanding how local medical systems are functionally maintained suggest that utilitarian redundancy and knowledge transmission are factors that influence the resilience of the system. However, to date, there have not been any studies that analyze these factors in relation to the variables that influence the ...

Karyotype diversity and 2C DNA content in species of the Caesalpinia group

BMC Genetics, 2018
Background The Leguminosae family is the third-largest family of angiosperms, and Caesalpinioideae is its second-largest subfamily. A great number of species (approximately 205) are found in the Caesalpinia group within this subfamily; together with ...

Comparison of Methods for Estimating Mechanical Properties of Wood by NIR Spectroscopy

Journal of Spectroscopy, Volume 2018, Issue 1, 2018., 2018
Near‐infrared (NIR) spectroscopy provides a rapid alternative to traditional methods of wood property assessment. For organizations who assess wood properties on a large scale, multisite, multispecies calibrations are of practical interest. We examined NIR spectroscopy for the estimation of density (at 12% moisture content), modulus of elasticity (MOE),

Temperatura, luz e substrato para germinação de sementes de Pau-Brasil (Caesalpinia echinata Lam., Leguminosae - Caesalpinioideae) Temperature, light and substrate for germination of seeds of Brazilwood (Caesalpinia echinata Lam., Leguminosae - Caesalpinioideae)

Revista Árvore, 2007
Programas de preservação de Caesalpinia echinata, espécie considerada em risco de extinção, incluem a conservação ex situ, que poderia ser ainda mais intensificada pelo armazenamento, no longo prazo, de suas sementes.

Morphophysiological Behavior and Cambial Activity in Seedlings of Two Amazonian Tree Species under Shade

Journal of Botany, Volume 2015, Issue 1, 2015., 2015
Variations in light intensity can lead to important anatomical and morphophysiological changes in plants. Aiming to increase knowledge about the Amazonian tree species, this study examines the influence of shade on the cambial activity and development of Parkia gigantocarpa Ducke and Schizolobium parahyba var.
