Características fisicoquímicas, nutricionales y morfológicas de frutas nativas
Revista de Investigaciones Altoandinas - Journal of High Andean Research, 2021 There are many native fruits in Peru containing essential nutrients for health and that have not been fully studied. The objective of this research was to determine the physicochemical, nutritional and morphological characteristics of five varieties of native fruits from the central Andean region and the northern Peruvian jungle: goldenberry (Physalis ...

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 60, Issue 12, Page 2540-2549, December 2023., 2023 Providing sufficient pollen and nectar resources to support wild pollinators over extended periods in agricultural landscapes can contribute to crop pollination and ensure high fruit weight and quality. This can be achieved by restoring natural and semi‐natural areas near crop fields with native, long‐flowering plant species.

Mauritia flexuosa fruit production increases with increasing palm height in the Peruvian Amazon
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 4, Issue 6, Page 599-604, November 2022., 2022 Fruit number, size, and allometric relationships were evaluated in the Peruvian Amazon for Mauritia flexuosa, a socioeconomically important palm with conservation concerns due to destructive harvest. Significant relationships were found between total fruit number and both palm height and fruit volume. Taller palms experience more crown illumination and

Evaluating the success of functional restoration after reintroduction of a lost avian pollinator
Conservation Biology, Volume 36, Issue 4, August 2022., 2022 Abstract Conservation translocation is a common method for species recovery, for which one increasingly frequent objective is restoring lost ecological functions to promote ecosystem recovery. However, few conservation translocation programs explicitly state or monitor function as an objective, limiting the ability to test assumptions, learn from past ...

Cacao flower visitation: Low pollen deposition, low fruit set and dominance of herbivores
Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 3, Issue 2, April–June 2022., 2022 Pollination of native cacao is surprisingly understudied, even though the process is crucial for the global chocolate production. In an understudied peruvian region, we found herbivores as dominant flower visitors, and low pollen deposition.Fruit set was low when flowers were pollinated naturally (2%), but also manually (7%). Our findings highlight the
