Slope position controls prescribed fire effects on soil: a case study in the high-elevation grassland of Itatiaia National Park

Revista Brasileira de Ciência do Solo, 2023
There is a need for greater knowledge about the medium- and long-term effects of prescribed fire management on soil in ecosystems prone to wildfires and more vulnerable to climate change.

Liverworts show a globally consistent mid‐elevation richness peak

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 13, Issue 3, March 2023., 2023
The investigation of elevational gradients allows to draw conclusions on factors and mechanisms determining patterns in species richness distribution. In this study, we for the first time compared worldwide data of elevational species richness patterns of liverworts and found that a hump‐shaped pattern with highest richness at the middle of the ...

Unlocking the evolution of abdominal specializations in Luciuranus fireflies (Coleoptera, Lampyridae)

Zoologica Scripta, Volume 51, Issue 6, Page 708-723, November 2022., 2022
Abstract Understanding the evolution of genitalic traits and their co‐evolution between sexes is at the core of Evolutionary Biology. Cross‐species reproductive trait co‐variation can be the outcome of hybrid avoidance and/or sexual selection. Although the outcome of these two phenomena will look similar, they yield distinct patterns of species co ...

Occurrence and recurrence of forest fires in Itatiaia National Park between 2008 and 2016

Biodiversidade Brasileira, 2020
Some ecosystems are adapted to fire disturbances, but as fires become recurrent in the same area, fire can cause drastic landscape changes resulting in loss of biodiversity.

A 100‐Million‐Year Gap in the Knowledge of the Evolutionary History of Bromeliaceae: A Brief Review of Fossil Records

Feddes Repertorium, Volume 132, Issue 1, Page 20-27, March 2021., 2021
Bromeliaceae arose in the Early Cretaceous, diverging from Typhaceae at ca. 125 Ma. After an apparent evolutionary stasis of 100 million years, they have undergone a high diversification starting in the Miocene. By adding fossils to the phylogenies, one can infer dates of arising and the divergence of lineages and link them to geological and climatic ...
