Uncovering biodiversity deficits: Experimental evidence for dispersal limitation of woody species in Mediterranean forest patches

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, EarlyView.
We experimentally introduced seeds of woody species into Mediterranean forest patches to test whether species’ absences reflected dispersal limitation or habitat unsuitability. Similar establishment rates showed that unoccupied patches are suitable for establishment but experience limited seed arrival, uncovering diversity deficits that can be restored

Effects of post‐fire heating on germination and early growth of two congeners of Dimorphandra species from Cerrado and Atlantic Forest

open access: yesPlant Species Biology, EarlyView.
Plants in the Atlantic Forest are not adapted to fire. On the other hand, in the Cerrado, fire occurs naturally, favoring species morphophysiologically adapted to its seasonal occurrence. However, little is known about the influence of the post fire scenario on the germination of woody species seeds in these two biomes.

Effect of urea treatment on digestibility and utilization of sorghum straw [PDF]

open access: yesBiotechnologie, Agronomie, Société et Environnement, 1999
Nine male goats and nine castrated lambs were randomly divided into three groups of six animals to receive one of three experimental diets in a digestion trial. Diet S, provided chopped sorghum straw (SS), 28/ concentrate (C) and 10/ Dolichos lablab hay (

Clarifying the generic limits of Talbotiella and Hymenostegia (Detarieae, Caesalpinioideae, Leguminosae) [PDF]

open access: yes
The formal description of four species of Cameroonian forest legume trees new to science has been hampered by uncertainty as to whether their correct generic placement is within Hymenostegia Harms or Talbotiella Baker f.

Ant‐mediated seed dispersal in the Poaceae: Evidence of myrmecochory in green foxtail (Setaria viridis) and giant foxtail (Setaria faberi)

open access: yesPlant Species Biology, EarlyView.
Model systems have been developed for certain mutualistic interactions, such as pollination, root nodules, and mycorrhizal symbiosis, advancing our understanding of these forms of mutualism. However, in the area of seed dispersal mutualism, a model system has been lacking. Here, we provide evidence of ant‐seed dispersal mutualism in Setaria viridis and

Tolerance to 1 year of drought: The role of seed hydration memory in the germination and early seedling development of Xiquexique gounellei subsp. gounellei under prolonged water deficit

open access: yesPlant Species Biology, EarlyView.
This study investigates the impacts of hydration–dehydration cycles (HD cycles) on the germination and early growth of Xiquexique gounellei subsp. gounellei. Our findings demonstrate that HD cycles significantly influence seed germination behavior. However, we observed that memory expression varies according to the plant's life stage.
