Intracultural Variation in the Knowledge of Medicinal Plants in an Urban‐Rural Community in the Atlantic Forest from Northeastern Brazil

Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012
This study assessed the intracultural knowledge of the use of medicinal plants in an urban‐rural community in an Atlantic forest fragment in northeastern Brazil. We examined the importance of native and exotic species and the effects of gender and age on that knowledge.

Characterization of Acylated Anthocyanins in Callus Induced From Storage Root of Purple‐Fleshed Sweet Potato, Ipomoea batatas L

BioMed Research International, Volume 2004, Issue 5, Page 279-286, 2004., 2004
Four anthocyanins were isolated from a highly pigmented callus induced from the storage root of purple‐fleshed sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas L) cultivar Ayamurasaki. The anthocyanins were respectively identified as cyanidin 3‐O‐(2‐O‐(6‐O‐(E)‐caffeoyl‐β‐D‐glucopyranosyl)‐β‐D‐glucopyranoside)‐5‐O‐β‐D‐glucopyranoside, cyanidin 3‐O‐(2‐O‐(6‐O‐(E)‐p ...

Habitat Structure Shapes Mollusc Assemblages in an Urban Semiarid River: Implications for Conservation and Public Health

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 36, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Fine‐scale environmental drivers shape freshwater mollusc assemblages in urban semiarid rivers. We examined how substrate composition and water chemistry influence mollusc richness and abundance along a polluted stretch of a river in the Brazilian semiarid region. Surveys at five sites recorded 2479 individuals.

Biosynthesis and Accumulation of Ergoline Alkaloids in a Mutualistic Association between Ipomoea asarifolia (Convolvulaceae) and a Clavicipitalean Fungus [PDF]

Plant Physiology, 2008
Ergoline alkaloids occur in taxonomically unrelated taxa, such as fungi, belonging to the phylum Ascomycetes and higher plants of the family Convolvulaceae. The disjointed occurrence can be explained by the observation that plant-associated epibiotic clavicipitalean fungi capable of synthesizing ergoline alkaloids colonize the adaxial leaf surface of ...

A Deadly Ride: The Interaction Between the Tortoise Beetle Botanochara impressa and the Parasitoid Wasp Emersonella niveipes

Austral Ecology, Volume 50, Issue 12, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Parasitoid insects can significantly influence the dynamics of terrestrial ecosystems due to their interactions with phytophagous insects. Tortoise beetles (Cassidinae s. str., Coleoptera, Chrysomelidae) are one of the most parasitized groups of Coleoptera.
