Soil-mediated effects on potential Euterpe edulis (Arecaceae) fruit and palm heart sustainable management in the Brazilian Atlantic Forest
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BVAMSTERDAM, 2012)
Euterpe edulis is an endangered species due to palm heart overharvesting, the most important non-timber forest product of the Brazilian Atlantic Forest, and fruit exploitation has been introduced as a low impacting ...
An overlooked plant–parakeet mutualism counteracts human overharvesting on an endangered tree
(Royal Society Publishing, 2018-01-31)
The exponential growth of the human population often causes the overexploitation of resources and disruption of ecological interactions. Here, we propose that the antagonist effect of humans on exploited species might be ...
Can overharvesting of a non-timber-forest-product change the regeneration dynamics of a tropical rainforest? The case study of Euterpe edulis
(2013-10-08)
The exploitation of non-timber forest products is often considered a low-impact activity in tropical forests. However, assessments of the impacts of such activity are mostly focused on the harvested species and not on the ...

Interactions between changing climate and biodiversity: Shaping humanity's future
(National Academy of Sciences, 2020-03)
Scientists have known for more than a century aboutpotential human impacts on climate (1). In the last 30 y,estimates of these impacts have been confirmed andrefined through increasingly precise climate assess-ments (2). ...
Palm heart harvesting in the Brazilian Atlantic forest: changes in industry structure and the illegal trade
(Blackwell Science, 1998-04-01)
1. Until the late 1960s, Euterpe edulis was the most important edible palm species in the Brazilian markets. Since then, overharvesting of natural stands and the limited scope of plantations have caused the industry to ...
Fruiting phenology of palms and trees in an Atlantic rainforest land-bridge island
(Elsevier Gmbh, Urban & Fischer Verlag, 2009-01-01)
Tropical forests show periods of scarcity and high fruit production in the same year and/or between years. Palms are an important component of Neotropical rainforests and a significant food resource for several frugivores. ...
