Ecophysiology of frailejones (Espeletia spp.), and its contribution to the hydrological functioning of páramo ecosystems

Plant Ecology, 2017
Paramos are high elevation tropical ecosystems in northern Andes, with large water yield and water regulation. One of the main and representative species growing in these paramos is the genus Espeletia, known as frailejones. There is a lack of knowledge of Espeletia ecophysiology, maybe due to its unusual anatomical modifications and the specific ...
