plantR: An R package and workflow for managing species records from biological collections

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 2, Page 332-339, February 2023., 2023
Abstract Species records from biological collections are becoming increasingly available online. This unprecedented availability of records has largely supported recent studies in taxonomy, biogeography, macroecology and biodiversity conservation. Biological collections vary in their documentation and notation standards, which have changed through time.

Evaluation of the theoretical risk of cross‐reactivity among recently identified food allergens for dogs

Veterinary Dermatology, Volume 33, Issue 6, Page 523-526, December 2022., 2022
Background: There is increasing evidence of cross‐reactivity between allergens of close or distant species. The A‐RISC (Allergens'–Relative Identity, Similarity and Cross‐reactivity) index helps evaluate the risk of theoretical cross‐reactivity between proteins of the same family among different species.

Patos Lagoon, Brazil, Suspended Particulate Matter (SPM) data compendium

Geoscience Data Journal, Volume 9, Issue 2, Page 235-255, November 2022., 2022
In this paper, we report on 41 years of suspended particulate matter (SPM) samples in the largest choked coastal lagoon in the world (250 km long, 40 km wide) – Patos Lagoon, Brazil. The data set consists of 17 data sets which were recovered and filtered for good quality of SPM with temporal coverage from 1978 to 2019.
