Patterns of Tree Species Abundance and Diversity on Urban Sidewalks in Macapá, Amapá, Brazil

Ecological Research, Volume 41, Issue 2, March 2026.
This study presents the first systematic inventory of street trees in Macapá, Northeastern Brazilian Amazon. Results reveal a dominance of exotic and fruit‐bearing species, low tree density, and a replacement of large canopy trees by smaller ones, indicating potential losses in ecosystem services and the need for more biodiversity‐focused afforestation

Caracterização físico-química da polpa de híbridos interespecíficos entre Euterpe oleracea e Euterpe precatoria

Research, Society and Development, 2023
O objetivo deste estudo foi caracterizar físico-quimicamente amostras de polpa de híbridos interespecíficos entre E. oleracea x E. precatoria, bem como analisar o rendimento em polpa e o perfil de antocianinas nas amostras. O rendimento em polpa para os híbridos estudados foi de 34,63% para o híbrido 1 e de 24,42% para o híbrido 2.

Animal–Plant Interactions Under Defaunation: Consequences for Amazonian Trees of Commercial Interest

Biotropica, Volume 58, Issue 2, March 2026.
We experimentally investigated the effects of medium‐ and large‐sized mammal defaunation on the removal and fate of seeds from economically important forest species in Amazonian forests. Our results show that mammal exclusion significantly reduced seed removal, although the magnitude of this effect varied among plant species.
