Functional strategies and distribution of climbing plant communities in different vegetation patches in a subtropical dry forest, central Argentina
(Oxford University Press, 2017-10)
AimsIn the context of global change, the impacts of forest structure alteration on climbing plants in extra-tropical ecosystems are poorly understood. It also remains little explored the functional strategies among climbing ...
Does hairiness matter in harare? Resolving controversy in global comparisons of plant trait responses to ecosystem disturbance
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2002-12)
Pure or mixed plantings equally enhance the recovery of the Atlantic forest
(Elsevier B.V., 2021-03-15)
Planting native trees in high diversity has been widely recommended to recover tropical forests to regain ecosystems that are taxonomically and functionally similar to the native forests. However, whether planting mixed ...
Plant functional types and trait values in the Paraná River floodplain: modelling their association with environmental features
(Elsevier Gmbh, 2016-02)
Our aim was to assess whether plant trait values and functional types are associated with environmental features in floodplain wetlands. The study was conducted in the Lower Paraná River floodplain, mostly dominated by ...
Species richness and functional groups of angiosperms from the Paraná River Delta region (Argentina)
(Centro de Referencia em Informacao Ambiental, 2015-12)
We provide a checklist of angiosperms collected in the Paraná River Delta Region during the 1990s and early 2000s. Plants were taxonomically identified and classified according to their origin (native/endemic and exotic) ...
Annual plant functional traits explain shrub facilitation in a desert community
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2016-01)
Question: For a desert where winter is the driest, harshest season we asked: does the effect of dominant shrubs (Bulnesia retama) on annual species depend on (1) the functional traits of the latter, (2) the season of the ...
Chemistry and toughness predict leaf litter decomposition rates over a wide spectrum of functional types and taxa in central Argentina
(Springer, 2000-03)
Litter decomposition, a major determinant of ecosystem functioning, is strongly influenced by the litter quality of different species. We aimed at (1) relating interspecific variation in leaf litter decomposition rate to ...
Flower palate ultrastructure of the carnivorous plant Genlisea hispidula Stapf with remarks on the structure and function of the palate in the subgenus Genlisea (Lentibulariaceae)
(2018-07-01)
In the genus Genlisea as well as in its sister genus Utricularia, the palate probably plays a key role in providing the colour, mechanical and olfactory stimuli to attract insect pollinators and to guide them to the ...
Disentangling grazing effects: trampling, defoliation and urine deposition
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2016-10)
Questions: Do the effects of grazing components on vegetation structure differ in their relative importance? Do components interact in their effect on vegetation?. Location: San Jose department, Southern Campos, Uruguay. ...
Changes in vegetation structure induced by domestic grazing in Patagonia (Southern Argentina)
(Academic Press Ltd - Elsevier Science Ltd, 2011-11)
We analyzed the structural differences associated with grazing exclusion on vegetation by studying 24 grazed-ungrazed paired sites in Patagonia (Argentina). Our objectives were to evaluate the effect of grazing on plant ...
