Dendropanax Morbiferus and Other Species from the Genus Dendropanax: Therapeutic Potential of Its Traditional Uses, Phytochemistry, and Pharmacology [PDF]
Antioxidants, 2020 The Dendropanax genus is a kind of flowering plant in the family of Araliaceae that encompasses approximately 91 to 95 species. Several Dendropanax species are used as traditional medicinal plants, extensively used Korea and South America and other parts

Mechanisms driving plant functional trait variation in a tropical forest. [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2021 We applied a statistical technique to analyze the relative amount of variation within plant functional traits associated with (a) environmental heterogeneity and spatial distance, as well as (b) bioclimatic variables in response to canopy‐light regime and soil nutrient availability. We found that plant functional reaction norms to bioclimatic variables

The role of flower consumption in Howler Monkey Females’ diet: adjustment across reproductive states [PDF]
PeerJBackground Although the genus Alouatta is considered a folivore and frugivore species, the consumption of vegetative parts like flowers often represents a considerable percentage of their diet.

Fruit production is influenced by tree size and size-asymmetric crowding in a wet tropical forest. [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2019 We observed fruit production for ~2,000 trees of 17 species across three years in a wet tropical forest in Costa Rica. Fruit production was negatively related to presence of larger neighboring trees in 13 species, but relationships between fruit production and soil nutrient availability were less common.

Medicinal and ethnoveterinary remedies of hunters in Trinidad [PDF]
BMC Complementary and Alternative Medicine, 2001 Background Ethnomedicines are used by hunters for themselves and their hunting dogs in Trinidad. Plants are used for snakebites, scorpion stings, for injuries and mange of dogs and to facilitate hunting success. Results Plants used include Piper hispidum,

Nightmare on Dendropanax Street: What is Dendropanax arboreus (Araliaceae)?
Phytotaxa, 2022 Dendropanax arboreus have been considered a high phenotypic variable species and the name applied to many different entities from Mexico and the West Indies to Brazil and Bolivia, from sea level up to 3200 m. A circumscription of D. arboreus based on the West Indies populations is proposed.

Journal of Systematics and Evolution, Volume 60, Issue 6, Page 1303-1318, November 2022., 2022 Our nuclear and plastid phylogenies are compatible with a scenario of early radiation in the Asian Palmate group (AsPG) of Araliaceae, with a major role of hybridization, as inferred from the identification of extensive signals of hybridization and incomplete lineage sorting (ILS) behind the genome incongruences detected.

Global Change Biology, Volume 27, Issue 3, Page 587-605, February 2021., 2021 We test if the trade‐offs between leaf carbon costs (via growth and maintenance) and gains (via photosynthesis) explain differences in canopy dynamics across an Amazon moisture stress gradient. We show that observed mean leaf area index (LAI) and LAI seasonality across the gradient are consistent with optimality‐based predictions.
