Functional and phylogenetic diversity of scattered trees in an agricultural landscape: Implications for conservation
(Elsevier B.V., 2015-01-01)
Scattered trees are an important feature of the matrix of agricultural landscapes, but their role in biodiversity conservation is still controversial and largely unexplored. We aim to investigate the value of scattered ...
Pasture trees in tropical México: the effect of soil nutrients on seedling growth
(Universidad de Costa Rica, 2006)
Survival, growth and vulnerability to drought in fire refuges: implications for the persistence of a fire-sensitive conifer in northern Patagonia
(Springer, 2015-09)
Fire severity and extent are expected to increase in many regions worldwide due to climate change. Therefore, it is crucial to assess the relative importance of deterministic vs. stochastic factors producing remnant ...
Human-induced vegetation changes did not affect tree progeny performance in a seasonally dry forest of central Argentina
(Academic Press Ltd - Elsevier Science Ltd, 2017-12)
Regeneration by seed is scarce in seasonally dry mountain forests; in these areas, shrub-grass patches intermingled with remnant trees are widespread due to anthropogenic fires and post-fire livestock grazing. We hypothesized ...
Mating system and pollen flow between remnant populations of the endangered tropical tree, Guaiacum sanctum (Zygophyllaceae)
(2011)
Tropical trees are generally long-lived making it difficult to assess the long-term effects of habitat fragmentation on genetic diversity. Maintenance of genetic diversity in fragmented landscapes is largely dependent on ...
Contrasting edge effect on lianas and trees in a cerrado savanna remnant
(2021-04-01)
The ecological impact of lianas in the edges of tropical forest areas is widely recognised; however, the edge influence on the liana community and its relationship with trees in biomes of open vegetation require further ...
A new species of Dendrophryniscus (Amphibia, Anura, Bufonidae) from the Atlantic Rainforest of southern Bahia, Brazil
(MAGNOLIA PRESS, 2010)
A new species of the tree toad genus Dendrophryniscus is described from a rainforest habitat at Parque Nacional de Serra das Lontras, municipality of Arataca, southern Bahia, Brazil. Dendrophryniscus oreites sp. nov. is ...
