Systematic review and meta-analysis reveals functional traits and climate are good predictors of tropical tree water use

open access: yesTrees, Forests and People, 2022
Hydrological and vegetation models, with the help of various micro-meteorological methods, are widely used to calculate water fluxes. Correctly estimating these fluxes requires accurate transpiration measurements. Tree water use is known to be influenced

Pervasive species-specific repulsion among adult tropical trees [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
AbstractFor species to coexist, performance must decline as the density of conspecific individuals increases. Although evidence for such Conspecific Negative Density Dependence (CNDD) exists in forests, the spatial repulsion it should produce has not been demonstrated in adults. Here we show that in comparison to a null model of stochastic birth, death

Classification of Tropical Forest Tree Species Using Meter-Scale Image Data

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2019
Accurate classification of tropical tree species is critical for understanding forest habitat, biodiversity, forest composition, biomass, and the role of trees in climate variability through carbon uptake.

The assembly and interactions of tree species in tropical forests based on spatial analysis

open access: yesEcosphere, 2017
Tree species were assembled into forest communities by various processes, and it was found that trees are spatially arranged in a community by the abiotic and biotic conditions within that community.

Complementary N Uptake Strategies between Tree Species in Tropical Rainforest [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Scholarly Research Notices, 2014
Within tree communities, the differential use of soil N mineral resources, a key factor in ecosystem functioning, may reflect functional complementarity, a major mechanism that could explain species coexistence in tropical rainforests. Eperua falcata and Dicorynia guianensis, two abundant species cooccurring in rainforests of French Guiana, were chosen

Chromosome-level genome assembly of Nothapodytes nimmoniana

open access: yesScientific Data
Nothapodytes nimmoniana is a plant species belonging to the genus Nothapodytes in the family Icacinaceae. This species holds significant medicinal value due to its camptothecin content. In this study, we present the first chromosome-level genome assembly

Tropical and subtropical dendrochronology: Approaches, applications, and prospects

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2022
Tropical and subtropical forests cover only 7 % of the Earth’s land surface. Yet, they host nearly half of global tree density with a high species number (∼40,000 species), store up to 25 % of global terrestrial carbon and represent one-third of net ...

THE COMPLEX BIOGEOGRAPHIC HISTORY OF A WIDESPREAD TROPICAL TREE SPECIES [PDF]

open access: yesEvolution, 2008
Many tropical forest tree species have broad geographic ranges, and fossil records indicate that population disjunctions in some species were established millions of years ago. Here we relate biogeographic history to patterns of population differentiation, mutational and demographic processes in the widespread rainforest tree Symphonia globulifera ...
