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.

Patrones de co-ocurrencia de líquenes corticícolas sobre cinco especies de árboles en la pluvisilva montana de la Gran Piedra, Santiago de Cuba. [PDF]
This study aims to determine lichens co-occurrence patterns on five phorophyte species in the montane rainforest of Gran Piedra, Santiago de Cuba. In each plot, all trees of these five species: Gomidesia lindeniana, Coccoloba wrightii, Clusia tetrastigma,

Caves in Quintana Roo, Mexico are known for spectacular calcite formations, blue water, and their significance in Mayan culture. A fascinating feature of these caves is the tree roots that emerge from ceilings, walls, and floors. Little is known about these incredible natural structures which form a key part of the ecosystem, linking to the forests ...

With the aim of studying the biodiversity and the biotechnological potential of endophytic fungi associated with the medicinal plant Dendropanax arboreus, 45 fungal isolates were recovered from ten plants grown at the “El Cielo” Biosphere Reserve, Mexico. Based on the sequence analysis of internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions and the observation of

On the Significance of Leaf Sides in Automatic Leaf-based Plant Species Identification [PDF]
Because the front side of a leaf and the underside are functionally very different – the former captures sunlight to produce photosynthesis and the latter absorbs carbon dioxide and releases oxygen and vapor – they typically have different visual ...
