El mono Cebus imitator (Primates: Cebidae) se alimenta del fruto de Hedyosmum mexicanum (‎Chloranthaceae) en las alturas de Costa Rica

open access: yesCuadernos de investigación UNED, 2019
En los bosques neotropicales se conoce con amplitud los hábitos alimenticios del mono carablanca. Sin embargo, en los ecosistemas tropicales de altas elevaciones, se dispone de poca información respecto a su dieta y comportamiento.

Bird perches and artificial bat roosts increase seed rain and seedling establishment in tropical bracken‐dominated deforested areas

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, Volume 32, Issue 7, September 2024.
Tropical forests are being reduced by human activities. The use of fire for agricultural expansion generates areas dominated by the bracken fern Pteridium, where forest regeneration is slow. This may be caused by seed limitation, especially of animal‐dispersed seeds, due to the absence of seed dispersers from the forest in deforested areas, calling for

Systematic reduction in seed rain of large‐seeded and endozoochorous species in pastures compared to forests along a tropical elevational gradient

open access: yesApplied Vegetation Science, Volume 27, Issue 2, April/June 2024.
By analyzing variation in seed rain among old‐growth montane forests and livestock pastures along a 2,000 m elevational gradient in the tropical Andes of southern Ecuador, this study reveals that large seeds and endozoochorous species are less prevalent in seed rain from pastures compared to seed rain from forests at the same elevation.

Angiosperm‐wide analysis of fruit and ovary evolution aided by a new nuclear phylogeny supports association of the same ovary type with both dry and fleshy fruits

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 66, Issue 2, Page 228-251, February 2024.
Phylogenetic analysis and molecular dating elucidate relationships for orders and families, trace crown angiosperms’ Triassic origin, unveil parallel carpel fusions in early eudicots, monocots, and magnoliids and associate specific fruit types sharing the same ovary type.

Constituents from Chloranthaceae plants and their biological activities

open access: yesHeterocyclic Communications, 2016
Abstract The Chloranthaceae is a small family with only four genera (Ascarina, Chloranthus, Hedyosmum, Sarcandra), of which nearly 70 species are distributed around the world. Chemical constituents in Chloranthaceae plants, especially sesquiterpenes, have attracted a great deal of attention in recent 5 years.
