ABSTRACT Fire may have distinct effects on the fauna inhabiting savannas and forests, because the former have evolved under occasional occurrence of fire, while natural caused fire tends to be rare in tropical forests. Therefore, fires may be particularly influential to plant–animal interactions in forests.

Flammability of cerrado stricto sensu plant species
Fire can cause damage and benefits to an ecosystem, and this relationship is influenced by two main factors: local weather conditions and fuel material characteristics. One of the main factors influencing the combustion process is the flammability of fuels, and its understanding is essential for the prevention of forest fires.

We evaluated nutrient cycling by measuring leaf litter production and decomposition in the Brazilian savanna (cerrado sensu stricto) on eutrophic (calcareous) and dystrophic (arenitic) Neosols over the same spatiotemporal scale.

Abstract Introduction Invasions by Pinus represent major challenges for conservation and ecological restoration, especially in open ecosystems of tropical South America, such as the Brazilian neotropical savanna (Cerrado). Objective We evaluated whether the clear‐cutting and manual removal of Pinus caribaea reduce the impacts of invasion on woody plant

Seed dispersal and predation of Buchenavia tomentosa Eichler (Combretaceae) in a Cerrado sensu stricto, midwest Brazil [PDF]
Abstract The ecology of seed dispersal is critical to understand the patterns of distribution and abundance of plant species. We investigated seed dispersal aspects associated with the high abundance of Buchenavia tomentosa in the Serra Azul State Park (PESA). We estimated fruit production and conducted fruit removal experiments. We carried out diurnal

ABSTRACT Micoureus is the most species‐rich subgenus within the genus Marmosa. Conflicting arrangements regarding the number of species comprising this subgenus have been proposed and the validity of M. budini has been debated. Here, we used an approach integrating genetic and morphological data were conducted to reanalyze the ‘rapposa’ group ...

STRUCTURE AND DIVERSITY OF THE ARBOREAL COMPONENT IN CERRADO SENSU STRICTO IN NORTHERN MINAS GERAIS
Due to a rapid change in the land use in northern Minas Gerais State, southeastern Brazil, large amounts of cerrado have been converted into crops. There is little information about the structure and diversity of the remaining communities in the region.
