Forest Structure and the Species Composition of the Parque Estadual Mata Atlântica, Located in Goiás State, Brazil

open access: yesInternational Journal of Ecology, Volume 2018, Issue 1, 2018., 2018
The Parque Estadual Mata Atlântica (PEMA), Goiás state, Brazil, is an Atlantic Forest reserve which has not been studied yet. The aims were to investigate plant biodiversity and characterize the flora to support the management plan. We adopt the point‐centered quarter method to inventory the tree‐shrub and lianas with the diameter at breast height more

Mulching does not improve seedling survival or growth during early forest restoration

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Weed control is one of the main operational challenges and cost components of tropical forest restoration in former pasturelands. Physical barriers (mulches) have been proposed as an alternative to conventional ring weeding because they can suppress competing vegetation while potentially improving the soil microenvironment ...

Quality and Conservation of Riparian Forest in a Mountain Subtropical Basin of Argentina

open access: yesInternational Journal of Ecology, Volume 2016, Issue 1, 2016., 2016
The aims of this work were to describe the conservation status of riparian forests located in a mountain subtropical basin of Tucumán province, Argentina, and assess how the quality of riparian forests is related with altitude, plant species richness, proportion of exotic species, and Total Suspended Solids (TSS) in adjacent rivers.

Proteinase inhibitors in Brazilian leguminosae

open access: yesMemorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 1991
Serine proteinase inhitors, in the seeds of several Leguminosae from the Pantanal region (West Brazil), were studied using bovine trypsin, a digestive enzyme, Factor XIIa and human plasma Kallikrein, two blood clotting factors.

Home Range, Diet, and Activity Patterns of Common Marmosets (Callithrix jacchus) in Very Small and Isolated Fragments of the Atlantic Forest of Northeastern Brazil

open access: yesInternational Journal of Ecology, Volume 2015, Issue 1, 2015., 2015
We evaluate the impact of very small and isolated forest fragments on the common marmosets home range, diet, and activity patterns, in the northeastern Atlantic Forest of Brazil. Three groups were studied in three forest fragments, from January to October 2010, totaling 360 hours of observations and 1,080 field‐hours.

Forest Responses to Fire Regime in the Humid Chaco of Paraguay

open access: yesApplied Vegetation Science, Volume 29, Issue 3, July/September 2026.
Fire regimes are increasingly shaping vegetation dynamics in the Humid Chaco of Paraguay, a poorly studied fire‐prone region. Our findings highlight resprouting as a key functional trait associated with fire disturbance. Although vegetation structure varied little among regimes, preserving forest patches may help maintain landscape heterogeneity and ...

Morphophysiological Behavior and Cambial Activity in Seedlings of Two Amazonian Tree Species under Shade

open access: yesJournal of Botany, Volume 2015, Issue 1, 2015., 2015
Variations in light intensity can lead to important anatomical and morphophysiological changes in plants. Aiming to increase knowledge about the Amazonian tree species, this study examines the influence of shade on the cambial activity and development of Parkia gigantocarpa Ducke and Schizolobium parahyba var.
