Phytolith Assemblages in Grasses Native to Central Argentina
(Oxford University Press, 2004-12)
Background and Aims Phytolith reference collections are a prerequisite for accurate interpretation of soil phytolith assemblages aimed at reconstructing past vegetation. In this study a phytolith reference collection has ...
Phytolith analysis of Cyperaceae from the Pampean region, Argentina
(Csiro Publishing, 2009-11)
Cyperaceae, along with Poaceae, is the main silica accumulator. Although the anatomical-taxonomic and palaeobotanical relevance of phytoliths has been well established, there are no studies that deal with the qualitative ...
Plant communities and soil phytolith assemblages relationship in native grasslands from southeastern Buenos Aires province, Argentina
(Elsevier Science, 2009-01)
This study has compared the phytolith production and soil phytolith assemblages of two native grass communities typical in Argentina, namely the monospecific Paspalum quadrifarium community or "pajonal", and the ...
Herbivore effect in the assemblages of phytoliths incorporated to soils from cow dung
(Elsevier Science, 2021-05)
Phytoliths represent an important fraction of soil's components and they are incorporated through different agents. One of the sources of phytoliths to soils and sediments is dung. In particular, in agroecosystems, the ...
Globular phytoliths differentiation in Arecaceae and other monocotyledons: morphological description for palaeobotanical application
(Tubitak Scientific & Technical Research Council Turkey, 2015-04)
Globular phytoliths have been mainly assigned to palms, woody trees, and other monocotyledon families from tropical regions. The lack of detailed descriptions of this phytolith morphology and its correct assignments to ...
Phytoliths indicate environmental changes correlated with facies analysis in a paleo island-lake, Upper Paraná River, Brazil
(2020-04-01)
Phytolith analysis has become a useful tool for paleoenvironmental studies. Phytoliths are produced by plants and are composed of biogenic silica, giving them higher resistance to diagenetic and oxidation processes that ...
Phytolith assemblages and systematic associations in grassland species of the south-eastern Pampean Plains, Argentina
(Oxford University Press, 2006-12)
• Background and Aims: Phytolith descriptions of South American plant species are scarce. This knowledge is crucial for the interpretation of the fossil phytolith record of a region. In this study phytolith assemblages and ...
An archaeobotanical perspective in the study of inflorescence phytoliths of wild grasses from arid and semi-arid environments of Argentina
(Elsevier, 2017-04)
Wild cereals have been harvested all over the world by hunter-gatherer with evidences as much in South America as in Australia, North America and Subsaharian Africa. In some places there are still used for human consumption. ...
