Effects of Environmental Changes in Degraded Areas on the Establishment of Plant Communities in the Brazilian Cerrado

International Journal of Forestry Research, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Understanding the interrelationships between plant communities and soil attributes in gully erosion can make valuable contributions to strategies focused on the conservation and recovery of degraded areas. Thus, we aimed to evaluate how the composition and structure of different plant communities are affected by soil attributes in a degraded area by ...

Forest Structure and the Species Composition of the Parque Estadual Mata Atlântica, Located in Goiás State, Brazil

International Journal of Ecology, Volume 2018, Issue 1, 2018., 2018
The Parque Estadual Mata Atlântica (PEMA), Goiás state, Brazil, is an Atlantic Forest reserve which has not been studied yet. The aims were to investigate plant biodiversity and characterize the flora to support the management plan. We adopt the point‐centered quarter method to inventory the tree‐shrub and lianas with the diameter at breast height more

Medicinal Plants for the Treatment of Local Tissue Damage Induced by Snake Venoms: An Overview from Traditional Use to Pharmacological Evidence

Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine, Volume 2017, Issue 1, 2017., 2017
Snakebites are a serious problem in public health due to their high morbimortality. Most of snake venoms produce intense local tissue damage, which could lead to temporary or permanent disability in victims. The available specific treatment is the antivenom serum therapy, whose effectiveness is reduced against these effects.
