Using artificial fruits to evaluate fruit selection by birds in the field
(Assoc Tropical Biology IncLawrenceEUA, 2001)
Geographic patterns in fruit colour diversity: do leaves constrain the colour of fleshy fruits?
(Springer, 2009-03-01)
We tested for geographic patterns in fruit colour diversity. Fruit colours are thought to promote detection by seed dispersers. Because seed dispersers differ in their spectral sensitivities, we predicted that fruit colour ...
Fruit dispersal syndromes in animal disseminated plants at Tinigua National Park, Colombia

Instrumented Color Determination And Sensory Analysis Of Tomato Fruits (lycopersicum Esculentum Mill)

Linking the hierarchical decisionmaking process of fruit choice and the phenotypic selection strength on fruit traits by birds
(Oxford University Press, 2017-08)
Aims: Animals in search of fleshy fruits forage mostly according to the number of available fruits and then select individual fruits based on reward quality or advertised subtle traits. This hierarchical pattern of fruit ...
Does attraction to frugivores or defense against pathogens shape fruit pulp composition?
(Springer, 2008-03-01)
Fruit traits evolve in response to an evolutionary triad between plants, seed dispersers, and antagonists that consume fruits but do not disperse seeds. The defense trade-off hypothesis predicts that the composition of ...
Influence of the cultivation system in the aroma of the volatile compounds and total antioxidant activity of passion fruit
(Elsevier B.V., 2012-05-01)
The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of the cultivation system on the volatile composition of the passion fruit and to determine the odoriferous contribution of the compounds for the aroma of the organic ...
Temporal variation in the abundance of two species of thrushes in relation to fruiting phenology in the Atlantic rainforest
(CSIRO Publishing, 2012-01-01)
When fruit resources in tropical forests are scarce, frugivorous birds might track fruiting by expanding their home-ranges or by moving. We tested whether the abundance of the Yellow-legged Thrush (Turdus flavipes) and ...
Fenologia, produção e qualidade de frutos da goiabeira ‘Paluma’ em diferentes épocas de poda
(2016-05-01)
Pruning guava trees at different times is an important management tool that allows year-long staggering of fruit production. In this context, this study aimed to evaluate the phenological characteristics, yield and fruit ...
