Synergistic Effect of Lupenone and Caryophyllene Oxide against Trypanosoma cruzi
Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine, Volume 2013, Issue 1, 2013., 2013 The in vitro trypanocidal activity of a 1 : 4 mixture of lupenone and caryophyllene oxide confirmed a synergistic effect of the terpenoids against epimastigotes forms of T. cruzi (IC50 = 10.4 μg/mL, FIC = 0.46). In addition, testing of the terpenoid mixture for its capacity to reduce the number of amastigote nests in cardiac tissue and skeletal muscle ...

A Review of the Biology of Eucharitidae (Hymenoptera: Chalcidoidea) from Argentina
Psyche: A Journal of Entomology, Volume 2013, Issue 1, 2013., 2013 All the members of Eucharitidae are parasitoid of ants. Argentina has 14 genera and 41 species, but little is known about their biology. Herein are provided new data for host associations (host ant and/or host plant) of Galearia latreillei, Kapala spp., Latina rugosa, Orasema aenea, and Orasema sp.

International Scholarly Research Notices, Volume 2013, Issue 1, 2013., 2013 The composition of the essential oils (EO) from leaves and rhizomes of Hedychium coronarium was analyzed both by gas chromatography and gas chromatography‐mass spectroscopy. Thirty and thirty‐nine compounds were identified, respectively, in the oils from leaves and rhizomes, representing 88% and 86.1% of the whole compositions.

DNA metabarcoding reveals greater plant diversity than morphological seed analysis of bird feces
Applications in Plant Sciences, Volume 14, Issue 1, January-February 2026.Abstract Premise Fruit‐eating birds drive seed dispersal in recovering tropical ecosystems, shaping forest regeneration. Molecular techniques, such as DNA metabarcoding, enable diet analysis from feces and can provide complementary frugivory data where dispersal is infrequent, as well as aid in seed identification in hyper‐diverse regions lacking ...
