The present study developed and characterized a novel copaiba oil polymeric nanoparticle (NPOC), which was efficiently internalized by breast cancer cells, exhibited greater cytotoxicity and selectivity than free copaiba oil and standard drug doxorubicin. NPOC also reduced tumor growth and migration in 3D models.

Synchrony strategies of six gall inducers that share a superhost, Eugenia copacabanensis (Myrtaceae)
Galling insects on the superhost Eugenia copacabanensis have developed different life cycle strategies to synchronize with plant seasonal changes and avoid competition for resources. Abstract The life cycles of galling insects are synchronized with their host plant phenology, allowing them to better explore available resources.

Key factors affecting seed germination of Copaifera langsdorffii, a Neotropical tree
In natural conditions biotic and abiotic factors interact, synergistically affecting seed germination. In this study, we experimentally simulated natural conditions that occur during seed dispersal that can affect the germination of Copaifera ...

Gene flow affects the genetic diversity of Copaifera langsdorffii Desf. in Cerrado
ABSTRACT Gene flow allows connectivity of geographically isolated populations and which genetic diversity is reduced. Understanding how gene flow occurs is essential to conservation and selection of priority populations for intervention. In this study, the rates of migration and selfing of Copaifera langsdorffii Desf.

Abstract Recent global interest in sustainable practices in the textile and fashion industry has inspired stakeholders to readopt natural colourants. However, integrating these practices raises several questions regarding the latest developments in natural colourant and trend forecasting practices in the textile and fashion industry.

Are lichens biocompasses? Revisiting an old prediction using new techniques
The equator‐facing portions of tree trunks receive direct sunlight and create restrictive microclimate conditions for lichens that orient preferentially towards the Earth's poles where trunks are shaded, indicating an optimal zone at the fine‐scale radial dimension.

Seed size/number trade‐off is a central topic in plant biology as it reflects ecological and evolutionary aspects of the species. Here we report the absence of a trade‐off mass/number of seeds and fruits in a polyspermic plant probably associated to abortion of self‐pollinated pistils and flowers.
