The Blue List Initiative: Guiding Biodiversity Restoration in Brazil's Espinhaço Range

Applied Vegetation Science, Volume 29, Issue 2, April/June 2026.
The campo rupestre is a biodiversity hotspot marked by extreme habitat heterogeneity and high species turnover. Using phytosociological data, floristic clustering and zeta diversity, we show that habitats are floristically non‐interchangeable and propose habitat‐ and substrate‐specific Blue Lists to guide effective, locality‐based ecological ...

Natural Antimicrobial Activity of Nettle (Urtica dioica L.) Leaf Extract for Shelf‐Life Extension of Mashed Potatoes

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.
NLE exhibited strong antioxidant activity, with DPPH, ABTS, and FRAP values of 21.96 ± 0.76 and 17.51 ± 0.90 μmol Trolox/mL, and 5.93 ± 0.65 μmol Fe (II)/g, respectively. Cytotoxicity assessment using L929 fibroblast cells indicated that the extract was non‐toxic at concentrations relevant for antimicrobial application.

Host preference of the hemiparasite Struthanthus flexicaulis (Loranthaceae) in ironstone outcrop plant communities, southeast Brazil

Acta Botânica Brasílica, 2016
Struthanthus flexicaulis is a hemiparasite abundant in ironstone outcrops in southeast Brazil. We evaluated its host preference among species of the plant community, taking into account the abundance and foliage cover of the hosts. The importance of each

Historical Climate and Biome Association Drove Phylogeographic Patterns in the Dwarf Swamp Frog (Anura: Leptodactylidae)

Zoologica Scripta, Volume 55, Issue 2, Page 220-231, March 2026.
ABSTRACT South America, a region with high biodiversity, has been profoundly shaped by geological events during the Miocene and Pliocene, as well as by climatic changes in the Pleistocene, leading to complex phylogeographic patterns. The diverse biomes and the biotic exchanges between them, particularly between the Amazon and the Cerrado, have ...
