Mountain roads and non-native species modify elevational patterns of plant diversity
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2018-06)
Aim We investigated patterns of species richness and community dissimilarity along elevation gradients using globally replicated, standardized surveys of vascular plants. We asked how these patterns of diversity are ...
Edible mushrooms as a natural source of food ingredient/additive replacer

FOOD OF RAINBOW TROUT AND CHANGES IN SOIL USE: THE CHILEAN EXAMPLE
(NOVA PUBLISHERS, 2013)
Modifications in soil use represent much more than simply a change in the landscape, but may also produce significant changes in water quality because of increases in sediments and nutrients that result from these activities. ...
Native and exotic plant species diversity in forest fragments and forestry plantations of a coastal landscape of central Chile
(Universidad Austral de Chile, Facultad de Ciencias Forestales, 2020)
Native forest replacement by exotic forestry plantations and fragmentation may have different consequences for biodiversity. In the transition zone between the Mediterranean and Temperate Regions of Chile, native forests ...
Queen Replacement in Mischocyttarus (Monocyttarus) cassununga (Hymenoptera, Vespidae, Mischocyttarini): a Particular Case
