Abstract Background Although multiple studies advocate the advantages of participatory research approaches for ethnoscience, few provide solid contributions from case that involve residents in all project phases. We present a study approach whose aim is to register ethnobotanical knowledge on use plants two quilombola communities ( maroon ), an important biodiversity hotspot Atlantic Forest, Southeast Brazil. Our tools will empower decision-making related sustainable and management among...
Foi estudada a flora vascular de uma área cerrado, situada no distrito Emas, município Pirassununga, Estado São Paulo (aproximadamente, 22º02'S e 47º30'W). Entre abril 1994 1995, realizou-se um levantamento florístico, em que foram amostradas 358 espécies. A partir dos dados deste levantamento, estudaram-se as variações fenológicas das espécies, procurando analisá-las como estratégias adaptativas. Os componentes herbáceo-subarbustivo arbustivoarbóreo comportaram-se maneira distinta. As...
O projeto Flora Fanerogâmica do Estado de São Paulo tem se dedicado a inventariar flora paulistana há quase 20 anos. Conta com atuação mais 200 colaboradores, maioria próprio estado, além pesquisadores outros estados e exterior. Desde 2001, foram publicados sete volumes as monografias 151 famílias, contendo 3.237 espécies em 722 gêneros. Este foi o ponto partida para conhecimento da diversidade das espermatófitas estado Paulo. A apresentação checklist neste momento é oportuna por constituir...
Biological diversity is directly affected by alien species, even though the diagnosed impacts vary with scale. Early identification of invasion natural patches essential for effective conservation actions. We aimed to determine exotic plant species present inside Fontes do Ipiranga State Park (PEFI), an urban protected area located in city São Paulo, Brazil, and their relative proportions occurrence native forest. Our goal was use these data assess status according specific literature define...
- No presente trabalho, estudou-se uma área de cerrado situada no distrito Emas, município Pirassununga, São Paulo (aproximadamente, 47'30'W e 22'02'S). O levantamento florístico da foi efetuado em 16 excursões coleta, com intervalos 20 a 30 dias. material fase florífera e/ou frutífera ou formação esporos coletado e, posteriormente, prensado identificado nível especifico. Foram encontradas 358 espécies, pertencentes 227 gêneros 78 famílias. A flora como um todo seus componentes...
Leishmaniasis is an infectious disease caused by a protozoan belonging to Leishmania genus. Different clinical outcomes can be observed depending on the parasite species and patient's health condition. The range from single cutaneous lesions lethal visceral form. treatment of all forms leishmaniasis based pentavalent antimonials, and, in some cases, second-line drug, amphotericin B, used. Beside toxicity both classes drugs, areas world, parasites are resistant antimonial. These detrimental...
RESUMO Este trabalho se propôs a realizar um estudo sobre o potencial econômico da flora local com objetivos de apontar ou fortalecer novas cadeias produtivas partir biodiversidade. O projeto foi realizado junto agricultores familiares no município Joanópolis, SP, Brasil. consistiu levantamento local, coleta e herborização do material, em cada uma das propriedades beneficiadas pelo projeto, sendo realizadas quatro visitas anuais, estação ano. Foram coletadas as espécies estágio reprodutivo,...
Ethnobotanical studies that use the participatory research approach seek to involve residents of a community in different stages study, promoting registration, dissemination and strengthening local knowledge, as well empowerment decisions related sustainable management resources. Using methodology, this study recorded made comparative analysis on plants two quilombola communities (Quilombo do Cambury-QC Quilombo da Fazenda-QF) State São Paulo. After training anthropological botanical...
The Atlantic Forest is considered the fourth most important biodiversity hotspot. Although almost 96% of its original area has been devastated, a large part remaining conserved inhabited by traditional communities. This research focused on two Quilombola communities who reside within Núcleo Picinguaba Serra do Mar State Park, São Paulo, Brazil. objective was to use combination ethnoecological and ecological approaches select priority species for which develop participatory conservation...
ABSTRACT We present a synthesis (2006-2012) of plant community dynamics in an area (1 ha) the largest remnant Atlantic Rain Forest surrounded by São Paulo city. Plants with ≥ 2.5 cm dbh, including climbers, were sampled 10 transects (2 × 50 m), and smaller (> 1 m height, < dbh) subtransects m). 901 individuals, 125 species (38 families), 83 classified as late-successional species, 12 threatened extinction 56 absent management plan, some Endangered (EN) species. The climbers most...
This study brings innovative information on the dynamics of C and N in urban forests a subtropical region. We tested hypothesis that isotopic sign leaves soil physiological traits trees would vary from center to periphery megacity, considering land uses, intensity automotive fleet microclimatic conditions. 800 four fragments were randomly chosen (182 species 45 families). Soil samples collected at every 10cm trenches up 1m depth analyze contents (and stable isotopes - δ13C δ15N). %C, %N,...
