Tracking climate vulnerability across spatial distribution and functional traits in Magnolia gentryi in the Peruvian tropical montane cloud forest

American Journal of Botany, Volume 111, Issue 9, September 2024.
Abstract Premise Understanding the responses of functional traits in tree species to climate variability is essential for predicting the future of tropical montane cloud forest (TMCF) tree species, especially in Andean montane environments where fog pockets act as moisture traps.

INDEPENDENT ORIGINATION OF FLORAL ZYGOMORPHY, A PREDICTED ADAPTIVE RESPONSE TO POLLINATORS: DEVELOPMENTAL AND GENETIC MECHANISMS [PDF]

, 2016
Observations of floral development indicate that floral organ initiation in pentapetalous flowers more commonly results in a medially positioned abaxial petal (MAB) than in a medially positioned adaxial petal (MAD), where the medial plane is defined by ...

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

Restoration 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

Propolis as a functional food and promising agent for oral health and microbiota balance: A review study

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 12, Issue 8, Page 5329-5340, August 2024.
Propolis is a natural substance made by bees that has many health benefits, especially for oral diseases. This study reviewed 22 articles that showed how propolis can prevent and treat dental caries, periodontal diseases, and other oral problems by balancing the oral microbiota, fighting bacteria, and reducing inflammation.

Are tropical forests approaching critical temperature thresholds?

Plant Biology, Volume 26, Issue 4, Page 495-498, June 2024.
Tropical tree leaves have greater heat tolerance than previously assumed by some scientists. ABSTRACT There is growing concern about the fate of tropical forests in the face of rising global temperatures. Doughty et al. (2023) suggest that an increase in air temperature beyond ∼4 °C will result in massive death of tropical forest leaves and potentially
