Epiphytes and their contribution to canopy diversity

, 2001
About ten percent of all vascular plant species world-wide are epiphytes and they are almost exclusively found in tropical forests. Therefore, they constitute a large part of the global plant biodiversity (10% of all species), and in tropical countries ...

Epiphyte-phorophyte relationships: assessing the differences between Seasonal Semideciduous and Swamp Forests in Southeastern Brazil1

Hoehnea
Vascular epiphytes are responsible for a considerable portion of tropical biodiversity; however, the variation of epiphytes-phorophytes relationships in different vegetation types are still poorly understood.

Effect of using commercial chlorine (HClO3Na) on the growth of epiphyte algae and their host Gigartina pectinata Daw. (Gigartinales, Rhodophyta)

Ciencias Marinas, 1997
The red alga, Gigartina pectinata Daw., was cultured under controlled conditions to reduce the growth of epiphytes. Commercial chlorine (HCIO3Na) in different concentrations (750, 500, 250 and 100 µL L–1), with different treatment times (60, 45, 30 and ...

Deciphering plant health status: The link between secondary metabolites, fungal community and disease incidence in olive tree

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023
Plant-associated microorganisms are increasingly recognized to play key roles in host health. Among several strategies, associated microorganisms can promote the production of specific metabolites by their hosts. However, there is still a huge gap in the

Putting vascular epiphytes on the traits map

, 2021
Plant functional traits impact the fitness and environmental niche of plants. Major plant functional types have been characterized by their trait spectrum, and the environmental and phylogenetic imprints on traits have advanced several ecological fields.

Identifikasi Jenis Epifit Dan Tumbuhan Yang Menjadi Penopangnya Di Blok Perlindungan Dalam Kawasan Taman Hutan Raya Wan Abdul Rachman

Jurnal Sylva Lestari, 2014
Epiphytic is one among the plants that attaches and grows on other plants for sunlight, water, air, and minerals.  The existence of epiphytes is very important for forest ecosystems due its ability to provide a place for the ants and the other organisme.

Simulating climate change in situ in a tropical rainforest understorey using active air warming and CO2 addition

Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Future climate‐change effects on plant growth are most effectively studied using microclimate‐manipulation experiments, the design of which has seen much advance in recent years.

Geographic biases and gaps in the sampling of plant–pollinator networks

Ecography, EarlyView.
Plant–pollinator interactions are essential for maintaining biodiversity and supporting food production, yet inferences drawn from network syntheses may be shaped by where interaction data are generated and which datasets are most reused. Here, we quantify the global distribution of published plant–pollinator networks, assess how publication rates vary

Alginate from seaweed and microbes: Sources, green extraction, functional properties, and food applications

Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Abstract Alginate, a renewable polysaccharide produced by brown seaweeds and selected bacterial species, has gained significant attention due to its tunable gelation behavior, biocompatibility, and wide utility in food, biomedical, and packaging applications.
