Lianas have more acquisitive traits than trees in a dry but not in a wet forest
Journal of Ecology, Volume 109, Issue 6, Page 2367-2384, June 2021., 2021 Lianas in a dry tropical forest had a more acquisitive strategy than trees, characterized by more productive leaves and more efficient display for light interception. In dry environments, lianas appear to benefit from high‐light and nutrient‐rich soils and thus take advantage of higher resource conditions compared to trees.

Local Knowledge and Conservation Priorities of Medicinal Plants near a Protected Area in Brazil
Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine, Volume 2019, Issue 1, 2019., 2019 We investigated the influence of socioeconomic factors (age, gender, and occupation) on the local knowledge of medicinal plants in the Araripe National Forest, Brazil, and the priority of conservation of the species as perceived by people. Additionally, priority species for in situ conservation were identified by calculating conservation priority (CP).
