Future uncertainties for the distribution and conservation of Paubrasilia echinata under climate change [PDF]
ABSTRACT Paubrasilia echinata is a widely cultivated endangered tree species with small populations restricted to a narrow strip of habitats along the Brazilian coast. The potential impacts of climate change on the distribution of P. echinata have yet to be investigated, and so it remains unknown whether protected areas will ensure the persistence of ...

IN SILICO STUDIES OF DITERPENES EXTRACTED FROM Paubrasilia echinata Lam. AND DERIVATIVES AGAINST HIV-1 INTEGRASE AND REVERSE TRANSCRIPTASE [PDF]
Introduction: HIV, whose viral multiplication is associated with three enzymes. Reverse transcriptase is responsible for synthesizing vital DNA based on its RNA; integrase is responsible for integrating viral DNA into human DNA; and protease is responsible for cleaving the genetic code into smaller, functional units.

The biocultural heritage of a region is developed and adapted after centuries of interrelationships between humans and nature. The endangered brazilwood [Paubrasilia echinata (Lam.), E. Gagnon, H.C. Lima, and G.P. Lewis] is a flagship species with cultural and economic importance that is directly affected by the history of human occupation on the ...

Water Deficit Modulates Morphophysiological and Enzymatic Changes in Paubrasilia echinata Seedlings
Water scarcity, intensified by climate change, limits the growth and survival of threatened tree species, such as Paubrasilia echinata (Lam.) Gagnon, H.C.Lima & G.P.Lewis. This study analyzed the effects of water availability in the soil on the morphophysiology and enzymatic activity of P.
