Forest Responses to Fire Regime in the Humid Chaco of Paraguay

Applied Vegetation Science, Volume 29, Issue 3, July/September 2026.
Fire regimes are increasingly shaping vegetation dynamics in the Humid Chaco of Paraguay, a poorly studied fire‐prone region. Our findings highlight resprouting as a key functional trait associated with fire disturbance. Although vegetation structure varied little among regimes, preserving forest patches may help maintain landscape heterogeneity and ...

Diet composition of the Red‐billed curassow (Crax blumenbachii) and its role as seed disperser in the Atlantic Forest: conservation insights

Restoration Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 5, July 2026.
Abstract Introduction Forest fragmentation and defaunation are major drivers of biodiversity loss in the Atlantic Forest of Brazil, where 70–90% of tree species depend on animal‐mediated seed dispersal. Reintroduction of large frugivores, such as cracids, is being used to restore species populations and lost ecological functions.

Integrated Orbitrap‐HRMS and Chemometric Profiling Reveals Metabolite Diversity and Antioxidant Signatures in Cerrado Eugenia Fruits

Analytical Science Advances, Volume 7, Issue 1, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Fruits from the Brazilian Cerrado, such as pitanga (Eugenia uniflora), jambolao (E. jambolana) and murta (E. punicifolia), are recognized for their nutritional and therapeutic potential, largely due to their phenolic‐rich profiles. However, systematic studies integrating high‐resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS) with chemometric tools to ...
