Climatology and Environmental Controls of Intense Wind Gusts in the Brazilian Amazon

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 4, 28 February 2026.
Abstract Investigating Amazonian intense wind gusts and their environments is essential to better understand the drivers and impacts of severe convection that can reshape forest structure, increase tree mortality, and threaten ecosystems and communities. This study presents the first multi‐decadal (2000–2024) assessment of intense convective wind gusts

Novel plant-associated genomoviruses from the Brazilian Cerrado biome

Archives of Virology, 2023
The discovery rate of new plant viruses has increased due to studies involving high-throughput sequencing (HTS), particularly for single-stranded DNA viruses of the family Genomoviridae. We carried out an HTS-based survey of genomoviruses in a wide range of native and exotic trees grown in the Brazilian Cerrado biome, and the complete genome sequences ...

Lepidopteran caterpillar fauna of cerrado host plants

Biodiversity & Conservation, 1997
The cerrado biome is rich in caterpillar species although the general biology and ecology of most tropical species remains unknown. Three host plant genera (Byrsonima, Erythroxylum and Qualea) were examined for caterpillars in four cerrado sensu stricto areas near Brasi´lia (DF, Brazil), from 1991 to 1995.

Ant–plant–herbivore interactions in the neotropical cerrado savanna

Naturwissenschaften, 2004
The Brazilian cerrado savanna covers nearly 2 million km2 and has a high incidence on foliage of various liquid food sources such as extrafloral nectar and insect exudates. These liquid rewards generate intense ant activity on cerrado foliage, making ant-plant-herbivore interactions especially prevalent in this biome.

Thermal stability studies of some cerrado plant oils

Journal of Thermal Analysis and Calorimetry, 2007
Thermogravimetry technique is useful to determine the thermal stability of vegetable oils. In this paper some vegetable oils obtained from brazilian Cerrado native plants were studied based on their high oleic acid content. Amburana, baru and pequi pulp oils presented higher yield of extraction compared to soybean oil.

Molluscicidal activity against Biomphalaria glabrata of Brazilian Cerrado medicinal plants

Fitoterapia, 2002
Alcoholic extracts of six Brazilian Cerrado medicinal plants were evaluated for their molluscicidal activity against Biomphalaria glabrata, intermediate host of schistosomiasis. Stryphnodendron polyphyllum bark extract, rich in condensed tannins, was the most promising as molluscicide.

Antimicrobial activity of some medicinal plants of the Cerrado, Brazil

Phytotherapy Research, 2008
AbstractIn order to determine the potential of Cerrado plants as sources of antimicrobial activity, the phytochemical screening of ethanol extracts from Virola surinamensis, Qualea grandiflora, Alchornea castaneifolia, Hancornia speciosa and Curatella americana traditionally used in folk medicine are reported.
