BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2019 Background Tropical rainforests (TRFs) harbour almost half of the world’s vascular plant species diversity while covering only about 6–7% of land. However, why species richness varies amongst the Earth’s major TRF regions remains poorly understood.

Biomechanical consequences of epiphytism in intertidal macroalgae
, 2013 Summary: Epiphytic algae grow on other algae rather than hard substrata, perhaps circumventing competition for space in marine ecosystems.

Epiphytism across a megadiverse pteridoflora
Revista Peruana de BiologíaFerns and lycophytes represent the second largest epiphytic group of vascular plants. Here we examined herbaria collection and literature to provide an account of epiphytes for Peru’s pteridoflora. We assessed compositional differences related to geography, altitudinal distribution, and vegetation type, along with observations on endemism and ...

Evidence for a Cenozoic radiation of ferns in an angiosperm-dominated canopy.
, 2020 In today's angiosperm-dominated terrestrial ecosystems, leptosporangiate ferns are truly exceptional--accounting for 80% of the approximately 11,000 nonflowering vascular plant species.

Radicular anatomy of twelve representatives of the Catasetinae subtribe (Orchidaceae: Cymbidieae)
Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2012 Considering that the root structure of the Brazilian genera belonging to the Catasetinae subtribe is poorly known, we describe the roots of twelve representatives from this subtribe.

Bioactivity of Secondary Metabolites from Macroalgae
, 2015 International audienceIn intertidal ecosystem, biotic (reproduction stage, algal growth, herbivory, epiphytism, fouling…) and abiotic (temperature, salinity, UV…) parameters are known to affect the algal species repartition. In response to this stresses,
