The most important condition of ecological restoration is the identification reference ecosystems, which function as a guide for assertive practice with biological integrity and ecosystem structure can be compared. For conservation projects to effective in current scenario biodiversity services decay worldwide, it fundamental understand soil-plant interactions each environment. In this study, we evaluated composition flora 45 plots, equally distributed three preserved areas (reference...

Abstract Wood density is a critical control on tree biomass, so poor understanding of its spatial variation can lead to large and systematic errors in forest biomass estimates carbon maps. The need understand how why wood varies especially tropical America where forests have exceptional species diversity turnover composition. As identity composition are challenging estimate remotely, ground surveys essential know the trees, whether measured directly or inferred from their identity. Here, we...

Objetivo: Avaliar o comportamento fenológico de Protium spruceanum e verificar a influência variáveis ambientais na fenologia, em uma vereda no norte Minas Gerais. A avaliação foi realizada mensalmente, novembro 2016 2019. Métodos: Foram observados 21 indivíduos, avaliando fenologia vegetativa (queda foliar brotamento) reprodutiva (floração frutificação) que foram correlacionadas com as climáticas (temperatura, precipitação fotoperíodo). Resultados: Na vegetativa, P. apresentou padrão...

Objetivo: Avaliar o sucesso da restauração de trecho floresta ciliar do rio Pandeiros (Januária, MG) após 10 anos implantação. Metodologia: Na área, foram implantados diferentes modelos restauração, utilizando plantio mudas (espaçamentos 2 m × e 4 m), com sem semeadura direta. Avaliou-se a regeneração natural em quatro áreas 1 ha cada. Para isso, cada área alocadas 12 parcelas m2 dois transectos, sendo seis próximas vegetação remanescente à pastagem (zonas). Nestas parcelas, amostrados os...

A composição florística dos campos rupestres compreende um mosaico de espécies com adaptações distintas, exibindo alta diversidade e endemismo. Entretanto, as plantas possuem dependência às condições específicas do local sua reprodução quase sempre é limitada, tornando difícil a regeneração natural após perturbações. O banco sementes solo representa fator potencial para deste ambiente. Objetivou-se avaliar o diferentes profundidades uma área campo rupestre, coletado em duas estações...

Our motivation for writing this editorial is to alert the academic community about risks of predatory publishing in Biology. By piggy-backing on open access (OA) movement and taking advantage “publish or perish” culture a system that prioritises quantity over quality, has grown exponentially recent years spread across all areas knowledge. Thousands journals books have emerged (provided fee paid) they publish scientific papers chapters without submitting them rigorous peer review. Now there...
