Multiple Uses of Wild Edible Trees by a Nahua-Origin Community in Western Mexico [PDF]

Plants
Wild edible trees (WETs) play an important role in the diet of many rural communities. Therefore, research on their use and management is important to support both food sovereignty and local conservation of biocultural resources.

Shear rate as scale-up criterion of the protein production with enhanced proteolytic activity by phosphate addition in the Jacaratia mexicana cell culture

Biotechnology & Biotechnological Equipment, 2021
The main challenge in bioreactor scale-up is maintaining the bioprocess productivity. The aim of the present work was to scale-up the protein production with enhanced proteolytic activity by phosphate addition in Jacaratia mexicana cell culture, by using

Inner bark vs sapwood is the main driver of nitrogen and phosphorus allocation in stems and roots across three tropical woody plant communities

New Phytologist, Volume 239, Issue 5, Page 1665-1678, September 2023., 2023
Summary Nutrient allocation is central to understanding plant ecological strategies and forest roles in biogeochemical cycles. Thought to be mainly driven by environmental conditions, nutrient allocation to woody organs, especially to living tissues, is poorly understood. To examine the role of differences in living tissues (sapwood, SW, vs inner bark,

Successional shifts in tree demographic strategies in wet and dry Neotropical forests

Global Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 32, Issue 6, Page 1002-1014, June 2023., 2023
Abstract Aim Tropical forest succession and associated changes in community composition are driven by species demographic rates, but how demographic strategies shift during succession remains unclear. Our goal was to identify generalities in demographic trade‐offs and successional shifts in demographic strategies across Neotropical forests that cover a

Differential herbivory and successional status in five tropical tree species

Revista Mexicana de Biodiversidad, 2018
Using 4 restoration plots, we performed a common garden experiment to test the hypothesis that inter-specific variation in leaf herbivory depends on the successional status of tree species of the seasonally dry tropical forest.

Genetic diversity and structure of wild populations of the tropical dry forest tree Jacaratia Mexicana (Brassicales: Caricaceae) at a local scale in Mexico

Revista de Biología Tropical, 2012
The tropical dry forest is a greatly endangered ecosystem, from which Jacaratia mexicana is a native tree. With the aim to assess the levels of genetic variation and population structure, four wild populations of J. mexicana were studied in the Sierra de

Propagación sexual y asexual de especies arbóreas forrajeras de la selva baja caducifolia de la región de Tierra Caliente, Michoacán, México

AIA Avances en Investigación Agropecuaria, 2018
En cuatro trabajos se evaluó la propagación sexual (PS) y asexual (PA) de doce árboles forrajeros: 1) PS del pinzan (Pithecellobium dulce) y cueramo (Cordia elaeagnoides) con escarificación química (H2SO4 al 50 %), física (agua hervida y aireada ...
