Integrated Approach for the Discovery of Antifungal and Antibiofilm Agents From Cerrado Plants. [PDF]

Chem Biodivers
A comprehensive screening of 108 Brazilian Cerrado plant extracts identified potent inhibitors of Candida albicans biofilm formation. Active samples underwent UPLC–MS/MS and molecular networking for compound annotation, followed by in silico docking. This integrated workflow accelerates the discovery of bioactive metabolites by combining experimental ...

Hyperdominant Trees Reveal Savanna Vulnerability Under Climate Change. [PDF]

Glob Chang Biol
The Brazilian Cerrado's forest structure relies disproportionately on just 30 hyperdominant tree species, which represent 50% of all individuals despite accounting for only 2% of species richness. This study evaluates their vulnerability under climate change scenarios for 2100.

Deciphering fire tolerance of trees at the Amazonia-Cerrado transition by trait-based approach: Implications from species to communities. [PDF]

Am J Bot
Abstract Premise Understanding how fire impacts trees is essential for predicting the effects of novel fire regimes on plant diversity in the transition between the world's two most diverse biomes, the Cerrado and the Amazonia. Here we addressed knowledge gaps regarding physiological damage and mortality in transitional species within fire‐prone ...

Adulteration and Contamination of Commercial Sap of Hymenaea Species. [PDF]

Evid Based Complement Alternat Med, 2017
The Hymenaea stigonocarpa and Hymenaea martiana species, commonly known as “jatobá,” produce a sap which is extracted by perforation of the trunk and is commonly used in folk medicine as a tonic. For this study, the authenticity of commercial samples of jatobá was verified by the identification of the main compounds and multivariate analysis and ...
