Adaptive Management Based on the Habitat Change of <i>Cibotium barometz</i> Under Synergistic Impact of Climate and Land Use Change-A Case Study of Guangxi, China. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Cibotium barometz is a highly demanded medicinal plant listed as a national key protected wild plant in China. To achieve the sustainable utilization of C. barometz, this study proposed the adaptive management countermeasure according to the habitat change under the synergistic impact of climate and land use changes.

Revision of the Barremian fern Coniopteris laciniata from Las Hoyas and El Montsec (Spain): Highlighting its importance in the evolution of vegetation during the Early Cretaceous

TAXON, Volume 72, Issue 3, Page 625-637, June 2023., 2023
Abstract The species Coniopteris laciniata and Sphenopteris wonnacottii are heterophyllous ferns recovered from two Spanish Barremian localities, Las Hoyas and El Montsec respectively. The similarities between these species, observed in a study of a total of 66 hand specimens from both localities, indicate that they are conspecific.

Using eDNA metabarcoding to understand the effect of fire on the diet of small mammals in a woodland ecosystem

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 12, Issue 11, November 2022., 2022
Information regarding diet changes over time after disturbance is lacking for many animals living in habitats prone to disturbances such as fires. DNA metabarcoding is a versatile molecular method that allows simultaneous characterization of many biotas using taxonomically informative barcode regions.

Bioactive Natural Products against Systemic Arterial Hypertension: A Past 20‐Year Systematic and Prospective Review

Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
Background. Systemic arterial hypertension is one of the most common cardiovascular risks, corresponding to 45% of deaths involving CVDs. The use of natural products, such as medicinal plants, belongs to a millennial part of human therapeutics history and has been employed as an alternative anti‐hypertensive treatment. Objective.

A new subfamily classification of the Citrus family (Rutaceae) based on six nuclear and plastid markers

TAXON, Volume 70, Issue 5, Page 1035-1061, October 2021., 2021
Abstract Rutaceae is a family of angiosperms well known for the economically important genus Citrus. The division of Rutaceae into subfamilies is still inadequate and provisional. Previous phylogenetic studies at the family level are characterized by a limited sampling of genera and lack several crucial taxa. Here, we present a phylogenetic study based

Crescimento do cáudice e fenologia de Dicksonia sellowiana Hook. (Dicksoniaceae) no sul do Brasil Caudex growth and fenology of Dicksonia sellowiana Hook. (Dicksoniaceae) in Southern Brazil [PDF]

Acta Botânica Brasílica, 2009
No sul e sudeste do Brasil, a samambaia arborescente Dicksonia sellowiana Hook. é ainda extraída ilegalmente de remanescentes florestais para uso da capa fibrosa do seu cáudice, bem como para cultivo como planta ornamental. No presente trabalho, o crescimento do cáudice, a produção, expansão e senescência de frondes, bem como a formação e liberação de ...

Diversity patterns in microfloras recovered from Miocene brown coals of the lower Rhine Basin reveal distinct coupling of the structure of the peat‐forming vegetation and continental climate variability

Geological Journal, Volume 56, Issue 2, Page 768-785, February 2021., 2021
Brown coal deposits of the Lower Rhine Basin, northwest Germany, cover the late Burdigalian to Serravallian and most of the Tortonian enabling access to observations of vegetation dynamics during the Miocene Climatic Optimum and Late Miocene Cooling. Based on a total of 500 microfloras sampled from brown coal seams in the Bergheim and Inden open cast ...

Jurassic continental coal accumulation linked to changes in palaeoclimate and tectonics in a fault‐depression superimposed basin, Qaidam Basin, NW China

Geological Journal, Volume 55, Issue 12, Page 7998-8016, December 2020., 2020
The Middle Jurassic Aalenian–Bajocian stages represent the tectonic transition period for the group of Jurassic sedimentary basins in northwestern China and include accumulation of the most important recoverable coal seams. Geological data from borehole cores, well loggings and rock‐mineral determination in the Aalenian to Bajocian‐aged Dameigou ...

Generating segmentation masks of herbarium specimens and a data set for training segmentation models using deep learning

Applications in Plant Sciences, Volume 8, Issue 6, June 2020., 2020
Premise Digitized images of herbarium specimens are highly diverse with many potential sources of visual noise and bias. The systematic removal of noise and minimization of bias must be achieved in order to generate biological insights based on the plants rather than the digitization and mounting practices involved. Here, we develop a workflow and data

Effects of SHINBARO2 on Rat Models of Lumbar Spinal Stenosis

Mediators of Inflammation, Volume 2019, Issue 1, 2019., 2019
Lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) is a major cause of chronic low back pain; however, only a few therapies which have been used in clinics still have limited effects on functional recovery. SHINBARO2 is a refined traditional formulation for inflamed lesions and relieve pain of muscular skeletal disease.
