Ethnobotanical insights into the medicinal and food uses of Lamiaceae in the Mediterranean region: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
For generations, Mediterranean communities have used Lamiaceae or Labiatae plants like rosemary, thyme or mint to care for their health and to enrich their food. By bringing together dispersed knowledge from across the Mediterranean region, our review revealed the continuing relevance of Lamiaceae while also compiling past uses that may hold future ...

Granivoría de la Torcaza Común (Zenaida auriculata) y su rol en la dispersión de semillas en bosques semiáridos del centro de Argentina [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
La Torcaza Común (Zenaida auriculata) es una de las aves granívoras más abundantes de la región Neotropical, y ha sido declarada plaga en varias regiones del sur de Sudamérica.

Temporal dynamics in functional fruit traits of native and invasive fleshy fruited plants in subtropical Andean forests

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Fruits encompass the energetic and material flow between both interacting parties in frugivore‐mediated seed dispersal. Since fruit traits matter in frugivores' foraging decisions, the temporal dynamics of fruit traits might influence interaction outcomes.

Primary seed dispersal spatial patterns of Juglansjamaicensis C. DC. subsp. jamaicensis

open access: yesRevista Cubana de Ciencias Forestales, 2018
This work was carried out in two Zonal Units of Conservation of the Turquino National Park, with the seeds of seven trees in six locations, to characterize the dispersal of the seeds of Juglansjamaicensis subsp.

The ecology of attraction: Fruit traits and frugivore diversity in neotropical Piper

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Fruit traits can benefit plant reproduction by enhancing seed dispersal by mutualistic frugivores (e.g. seed dispersal syndromes), but identifying the role of specific fruit traits in mediating frugivory is challenging because these traits can serve multiple functions ...

Regeneración de árboles tropicales e implicaciones para el manejo de bosques naturales

open access: yesEcosistemas, 2003
El reclutamiento exitoso desde semillas en bosques neotropicales implica una secuencia de etapas. La disponibilidad del polen y recursos consumibles por los árboles maternales puede limitar el número de semillas producidas. La dispersión de semillas a un

Legítima dispersión de semillas Ugni molinae Turcz. (Myrtaceae), por monito del monte, Dromiciops gliroides

open access: yes, 2011
We investigated if the marsupial Dromiciops gliroides (Microbiotheriidae) is a legitimate seed disperser of Ugni molinae (Myrtaceae). We compared the germination rate of defecated and not-defecated seeds.

Longevity in plants impacts phylogenetic and population dynamics

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Phylogenies of long‐lived plants often exhibit short molecular branch lengths and high levels of gene‐tree conflict. However, the biological mechanisms underlying these patterns remain unclear. We examine this with simulations and through empirical examination of several large seed plant clades.

Dispersión asimétrica de semillas de Embothrium coccineum (Proteaceae) en el bosque templado de Chiloé, Chile

open access: yesEcología Austral, 2005
La dispersión de semillas es un importante factor determinante de la estructura espacial de las poblaciones de plantas y su estudio permite inferir los patrones de avance de las especies a través del paisaje. Esto es particularmente relevante en el caso

Efecto del tamaño de trampa al cuantificar la caída de material vegetal

open access: yesCuadernos de investigación UNED, 2023
Introducción: Muchos fenómenos naturales estudiados en ecología (como lluvia de semillas y producción de hojarasca) requieren métodos cuantitativos que recolecten datos in absentia, por ejemplo, las trampas.
