Effect of forest successional stage on the host-epiphyte orchid relationship in the Pindo Mirador biological station, Ecuador

Revista Cubana de Ciencias Forestales, 2021
Epiphyte diversity in forest ecosystems is closely related to forest structure; however, in the Pindo Mirador Biological Station in Ecuador, there are no studies documenting this interaction.

Diversidade de bromeliáceas epífitas na Área de Proteção Ambiental Ilha do Combu, Belém, Pará, Brasil Diversity of epiphytic bromeliads in the environmental protection area of Combu Island, Belém, Pará, Brazil

Acta Botânica Brasílica, 2012
Informações sobre a diversidade no nível de espécie oferecem subsídios importantes para o desenvolvimento sustentável e a conservação biológica. Neste contexto, estudos com Bromeliaceae merecem destaque, especialmente porque o grupo é importante ...

An overview on epiphytism as a direct mechanism of facilitation in tropical forests

, 2018
Direct facilitation is characterized by the positive effect of one individual on the other through changes in abiotic conditions and the creation of novel habitats.

Identification of an epiphytic diatom on Nitzschia sigmoidea (Bacillariophyceae)

, 2019
Epiphytism on benthic motile diatoms is not common and can be considered a phoretic habitat. Nitzschia sigmoidea is a very long diatom which often exhibits epiphytes on its frustule.

Towards resolving Lamiales relationships: insights from rapidly evolving chloroplast sequences

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2010
Background In the large angiosperm order Lamiales, a diverse array of highly specialized life strategies such as carnivory, parasitism, epiphytism, and desiccation tolerance occur, and some lineages possess drastically accelerated DNA substitutional ...

Adaptive radiation, correlated and contingent evolution, and net species diversification in Bromeliaceae [PDF]

, 2014
We present an integrative model predicting associations among epiphytism, the tank habit, entangling seeds, C3 vs. CAM photosynthesis, avian pollinators, life in fertile, moist montane habitats, and net rates of species diversification in the monocot ...

Epiphytism in ferns: diversity and history

Comptes Rendus. Biologies, 2008
As for other vascular plants, numerous adaptive strategies have been selected in epiphytic ferns in order to survive in a constraining and desiccating environment and thus to prevent dehydration and/or to access to water and nutrients. Here we present some of the specializations that allow ferns to survive in this particular habitat.

Epiphytic macroalgae of maricultured Sargassum and their potential utilizations

Aquatic Living Resources
Epiphytism commonly occurs in marine benthic macroalgae and seagrass communities under natural conditions and those of mariculture. This can greatly obstruct the cultivation of commercial seaweeds and ultimately impacts the seaweed aquaculture industry ...
