The structure and ecological function of the interactions between plants and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi through multilayer networks

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 37, Issue 8, Page 2217-2230, August 2023., 2023
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Arbuscular mycorrhizas are one of the most frequent mutualisms in terrestrial ecosystems. Although studies on plant mutualistic interaction networks suggest that they may leave their imprint on plant community structure and dynamics, this has not been explicitly ...

Seasonality regulates the structure and biogeochemical impact of ectomycorrhizal fungal communities across environmentally divergent neotropical dry forests

open access: yesJournal of Ecology, Volume 111, Issue 8, Page 1598-1613, August 2023., 2023
These results highlight the importance of seasonality and plant community composition in shaping different aspects of SDTF ECM fungal community structure and diversity as well as the potential for both the plant and fungal components of ECM symbioses to impact soil functioning across heterogenous SDTFs.

Biotic filters driving the differentiation of decomposer, epiphytic and pathogenic phyllosphere fungi across plant species

open access: yesOikos, Volume 2023, Issue 5, May 2023., 2023
The phyllosphere is a wide and complex ecosystem that provides a key support for microbial diversity. Fungal communities inhabiting the leaf are functionally variable and play important roles on plant performance. Factors conditioning the arrival and colonization of fungal communities will determine the phyllosphere fungal composition.

RecruitNet: A global database of plant recruitment networks

open access: yesEcology, Volume 104, Issue 2, February 2023., 2023
Abstract Plant recruitment interactions (i.e., what recruits under what) shape the composition, diversity, and structure of plant communities. Despite the huge body of knowledge on the mechanisms underlying recruitment interactions among species, we still know little about the structure of the recruitment networks emerging in ecological communities ...

Spatial phylogenetic and phenotypic patterns reveal ontogenetic shifts in ecological processes of plant community assembly

open access: yesOikos, Volume 2022, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
The analysis of the spatial phylogenetic and phenotypic structure of plant communities can provide insight into the underlying processes and interactions governing their assembly, and how these may change during plant ontogeny. We used point pattern analysis to find out if saplings and adult plants are surrounded by phylogenetically and phenotypically ...

Legacy effects of seed dispersal mechanisms shape the spatial interaction network of plant species in Mediterranean forests

open access: yesJournal of Ecology, Volume 109, Issue 10, Page 3670-3684, October 2021., 2021
Our analyses highlight the importance of the spatial legacy of seed dispersal and early recruitment in the assembly of plant communities. Particularly, animal seed dispersal can lead to multispecies clusters and positive spatial associations across life stages in Mediterranean forests, with surprisingly little signatures of negative interactions.

Uso de aditivos em rações para suínos nas fases de creche, crescimento e terminação Use of additives in feed for swine in nursery, growing and finishing phases

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Zootecnia, 2009
Este trabalho foi conduzido com o objetivo de verificar o efeito da adição de antibiótico, probiótico, prebiótico e gluconato de sódio para suínos no período de 28 a 142 dias de idade, correspondente às fases de creche, crescimento e terminação.

Vellozioid roots allow for habitat specialization among rock‐ and soil‐dwelling Velloziaceae in campos rupestres

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 2, Page 442-457, February 2020., 2020
A free Plain Language Summary can be found within the Supporting Information of this article. Abstract Plant growth on harsh substrates (habitat specialization) requires specific traits to cope with stressful conditions. We tested whether traits related to nutrient acquisition (root colonization by fungal symbionts, and plant morphological and ...

Influência da adição de probiótico e/ou prebiótico em dietas de leitões desmamados sobre as atividades das enzimas digestivas e parâmetros sangüíneos - DOI: 10.4025/actascianimsci.v26i4.1743

open access: yesActa Scientiarum: Animal Sciences, 2008
Foram utilizados 44 leitões, desmamados aos 21 dias de idade, alimentados com cinco dietas (T1 – dieta basal; T2 – dieta basal + antibiótico; T3 – dieta basal + probiótico; T4 – dieta basal + prebiótico; T5 – dieta basal + simbiótico) e abatidos em três ...
