A low‐cost protocol for the optical method of vulnerability curves to calculate P50

Applications in Plant Sciences, Volume 13, Issue 2, March-April 2025.
Abstract Premise The quantification of plant drought resistance, particularly embolism formation, within and across species, is critical for ecosystem management and agriculture. We developed a cost‐effective protocol to measure the water potential at which 50% of hydraulic conductivity (P50) is lost in stems, using affordable and accessible materials ...

How does the transformation of Cerrado vegetation into exotic pastures affect insect communities? A meta‐analysis Como a transformação da vegetação de Cerrado para pastagens exóticas afeta as comunidades de insetos? Uma meta‐análise

Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 18, Issue 2, Page 275-284, March 2025.
The structural components of the Cerrado are essential for conserving insect species richness, as conserved Cerrado habitats support higher insect species richness compared to exotic pastures Insect abundance is similar between conserved Cerrado and exotic pastures; therefore, synanthropic species may obscure the decline of sensitive insect populations
