Applied nucleation promotes recovery of New Zealand raised bog vegetation toward a reference community

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Applied nucleation aims to restore degraded ecosystems efficiently by establishing vegetation patches that increase in biodiversity and extent through natural dispersal and facilitation. Although widely tested in terrestrial ecosystems, its long‐term outcomes in wetlands remain poorly understood, particularly how restored ...

Alterações anátomo-histopatológicas em ratos submetidos à dieta com extrato de broto de samambaia (Pteridium aquilinum var. arachnoideum) de dois municípios do estado do Paraná Macroscopic and microscopic changes in rats fed on a bracken fern diet (Pteridium aquilinum var. arachnoideum) from different regions of Parana State, Brazil

Arquivo Brasileiro de Medicina Veterinária e Zootecnia, 2005
The carcinogenicity of bracken fern harvest from two regions of Paraná State to induce hematury in rats was studied. In order to do that, 33 Wistar rats were divided in three groups.

Natural Apospory in Pteridium?

American Fern Journal, 1966
From a population of the bracken fern in New Hampshire, Farlow (1889) described prothalloid outgrowths from the marginal sori. He concluded that natural apospory, i.e. the formation of a gametophyte vegetatively from a sporophyte under normal environmental conditions, had occurred as reported by Druery (1884) and Bower (1884).

Interannual dynamic resource selection patterns of the northern bobwhite in a region with poor edaphic conditions

Wildlife Biology, Volume 2026, Issue 5, September 2026.
Understanding an organism's shifting resource needs throughout its life cycle is crucial for developing effective conservation strategies. Northern bobwhite Colinus virginianus populations have been declining for nearly a century due largely to habitat loss/degradation.

Biological Protein Value of Pteridium aquilinum (L.) Kuhn

Техника и технология пищевых производств, 2022
Contemporary human diet is poor in proteins. Therefore, the modern food science should find new sources of high-grade protein. The bracken fern is rich in proteins can be an unconventional solution to this problem. The research objective was to study the

Ecological Costs of Waiting to Restore Ecosystem Engineers: The Case of Giant Tortoises in the Galápagos Islands

Conservation Letters, Volume 19, Issue 5, September/October 2026.
ABSTRACT In the Galápagos Islands, giant tortoises (Chelonoidis spp.) engineer terrestrial ecosystems. Endemic tortoise lineages have been lost from Floreana and Pinta Islands, resulting in ecosystem shifts, with tortoise population restoration currently being considered using hybrids that include ancestry from the now extinct C.
