Functional diversity revealed by removal experiments
(Elsevier Science London, 2003-03)
The dominant protocol to study the effects of plant diversity on ecosystem functioning has involved synthetically assembled communities, in which the experimental design determines species composition. By contrast, the ...
Mycorrhizal community resilience in response to experimental plant functional type removals in a woody ecosystem
(Wiley, 2009-09)
1. Dominant plant functional types (PFTs) are expected to be primary determinants of communities of other above- and below-ground organisms. Here, we report the effects of the experimental removal of different PFTs on ...
Aquatic macrophytes potential for the simultaneous removal of heavy metals (Buenos Aires, Argentina)
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2004-11)
Heavy metal removal from water has been approached by using different technologies. Phytotechnologies, with an increasing development during the last two decades, involve using plants for metal removal. Three autochthonous ...
Resistance to Centaurea solstitialis invasion from annual and perennial grasses in California and Argentina
(Springer, 2011-10)
A common explanation for Centaurea solstitialis invasion in California is that it occupies an "empty niche" created by the replacement of native perennial grasses by exotic annual grasses and concomitant increases in soil ...
Lindane removal using Streptomyces strains and maize plants: a biological system for reducing pesticides in soils
(Springer, 2015-10)
Background and aims: Plants and contaminant-degrading microbes are a suitable combination for the remediation of pesticides. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of Streptomyces strains cultured with ...
Native and non-native ruderals experience similar plant: soil feedbacks and neighbor effects in a system where they coexist
(Springer Heidelberg, 2015-07)
Recent applications of coexistence theory to plant invasions posit that non-natives establish in resident communities through either niche differences or traits conferring them with fitness advantages, the former being ...
Seed rain in a removal experiment in a cactus-shrub area invaded by an exotic grass in Mona Island
(External Scientific Advisory Committe, 2012)
Assessment of the Removal Capacity, Tolerance, and Anatomical Adaptation of Different Plant Species to Benzene Contamination
(Springer, 2014-08-01)
The medium most directly affected by anthropic contamination is soil and, hence, groundwater (saturated and unsaturated zones). In the phytoremediation process, the direct absorption of soil contaminants through the roots ...
O efeito do fogo na remoção de sementes no Cerrado
(Universidade Federal de São CarlosUFSCarPrograma de Pós-Graduação em Ecologia e Recursos Naturais - PPGERNCâmpus São Carlos, 2020-07-03)
Fire may modulates the dynamics, diversity and structure of many terrestrial ecosystems. Although the effects of fire are well studied for some plant and animal communities, the effects of fire on important ecological ...
