Unravelling the drivers of island species richness in tropical savannas
Journal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 4, April 2026.Murundu island area explains a substantial proportion of the variation in tree and herb richness, consistent with Island Biogeography Theory. On average, a 10% increase in island size corresponds to increases of seven tree species and 7.8 herb species.

Austral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 3, March 2026.ABSTRACT Plant‐hummingbird interaction networks can be influenced by environmental conditions and resources, which vary seasonally and daily. We aimed to understand how variations in these parameters across these two temporal windows influence patterns of plant‐hummingbird interactions and hummingbirds dominance hierarchies in a Brazilian Cerrado ...

Pollination and plant reproduction in the Cerrado, the world's most biodiverse savanna
Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 1, Page 74-105, February 2026.ABSTRACT The Brazilian Cerrado is a continental‐wide biodiversity hotspot and the most species‐rich savanna ecosystem in the world. The main aspect characterising this biodiversity is that the landscape is arranged as an intricate mosaic of different plant formations, including grasslands, savannas, and forests, each harbouring distinct but ...

Air layering in Caryocar brasiliense: effect of substrate
CONTRIBUCIONES A LAS CIENCIAS SOCIALESThe commercial propagation of Caryocar brasiliense Cambess is hindered by several factors, including seed dormancy and low cutting survival rates. Air layering studies are needed to overcome these limitations. Previous studies have reported the influence of substrates on the rooting of air layers for different species.
