The legume genus Mimosa has > 500 species, with two major centres of diversity, Brazil (c. 350 spp.) and Mexico 100 spp.). In most species are nodulated by Burkholderia. Here we asked whether this is also true native endemic Mexican species. We have tested apparent affinity for betaproteobacteria examining the symbionts in Mexico, especially from central highlands where spp. diversified. Nodules were using situ immunolocalization. Rhizobia isolated nodules genetically characterized their...
Restoration ecology is a science focusing on using ecological principles to improve ecosystems degraded usually through habitat destruction (Bradshaw & Chadwik 1980, Handel et al. 1994). Successful restoration depends negotiation and understanding of different stakeholders, including the daily users resources, government institutions that will regulate resource use research community working in area.
Prosopis laevigata and Mimosa biuncifera are frequently found in arid semiarid shrublands, but scarce information is available about their influence on plant community structure soil fertility. We compared structure, diversity nutrients of three shrubland sites located Mezquital Valley, Mexico. These differ dominant species: Site 1 (Bingu) P. laevigata, 2 (González) M. biuncifera, 3 (Rincón) with the presence both legumes. The results showed that (Site 3) had more cover, taller plants higher...
Recent studies have shown that some species of Mimosa (Leguminosae-Mimosoideae) create resource islands (RI), rich in soil organic matter and nutrients, as well arbuscular mycorrhyzal fungal (AMF) spores, the semi-arid Valley Tehuacán- Cuicatlán. The relevance this fact is arid regions are characterized by low fertility soils scarce precipitation, limiting plant growth development; explains why presence AM fungi may be advantageous for mycorrhizal desert plants. Fluctuations AMF spore...
Mimosa tenuiflora (Willd.) Poir. is an important natural resource in Mexico, due to its diverse uses. However, seed germination, dissemination and seedling establishment of this species had not been studied up date. Fruits seeds were collected the State Chiapas, Mexico (S. L. Camargo el al. 118, U AMIZ). Germinatíon experiments carried out afier four years storage; I 935 sown Petri dishes containing moistened Wathman filter papero Optimum temperatures determined a gradíent 5-40 ° C, with...
Abstract In this paper we analyse six communities with seven Mimosa species in the Tehuacan-Cuicatlan valley, Mexico. All are endemic to Mexico and four valley. found (1) ‘matorral xerofilo’ (arid tropical scrub): calcicola, M. lacerata, luisana, polyantha purpusii, (2) ‘selva baja caducifolia’ (tropical deciduous forest): adenantheroides, texana var. filipes. Most of them occur similar soil environments, while calcicola establish particular conditions only luisana establishes two different...
Se reportan 25 especies y siete géneros de esporas hongos micorrizógenos arbusculares (HMA) para la región Nizanda, Oaxaca, México. Para ello, se tomaron al azar muestras suelo, en lluvia secas, incluyendo parcelas cultivo maíz, áreas vegetación secundaria selva baja caducifolia. aislaron las esporas, identificaron montaron macetas propagación. La familia Glomeraceae aportó 44% especies, seguida Acaulosporaceae (24%) Gigasporaceae (20%). encontraron 13 el maizal, 24 12 De éstas, Glomus...
Plant cover loss due to changes in land use promotes a decrease spore diversity of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF), viable mycelium and, therefore, AMF colonization, this has an influence community as consequence, its recovery. To evaluate different propagules, nine plots tropical dry forest with secondary vegetation were selected: 0, 1, 7, 10, 14, 18, 22, 25, and 27 years after abandonment Nizanda, Oaxaca, Mexico. The stages development is consequence slash burn agriculture, posterior...

It has been considered that Mimosa aculeaticarpa var. and M. luisana have the potential to restore temperate semi-arid environments, respectively. Mature seeds were collected from eight mother plants per taxon determine effects of scarification temperature on seed germination both taxa, define optimum for germination. To obtain a representative sample each taxon, with same weight size mixed. Five replicates 20 (100 taxon/temperature, plus control) established. The mechanically scarified...
Ferns and lycophytes are pioneer plants that can be useful for revegetation. Their natural distribution interaction with soil fungal endophytes increase plant fitness but have received little attention. This study aimed to identify these species in mine wastes, determine colonization by arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) dark septate (DSE). The pseudo-total diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid (DTPA)-extractable rhizosphere concentrations of As, Cu, Cd, Pb, Zn, bioavailability index (BI),...
Mimosa es el género con mayor número de especies Mimosoideae (Leguminosae) en México; se establecen desde nivel del mar hasta 2,850 m altitud. Se estimó la tolerancia cinco al estrés hídrico, comparando algunas características anatómicas los elementos vaso xilema secundario y estimaron índices mesomorfía vulnerabilidad madera. elaboraron cortes transversales preparaciones material disociado tres individuos por especie. Los considerando diámetro vasos, vasos/mm2 longitud vaso. Las presentan...
Las especies de hongos micorrizógenos arbusculares Diversispora trimurales, Gigaspora candida y Glomus corymbiforme se registran por vez primera para México. Estos taxa fueron aislados la rizosfera Mimosa lacerata, M. luisana, polyantha purpusii (Leguminosae-Mimosoideae), endémicas México, 2 las cuales están restringidas al Valle Tehuacán-Cuicatlán, Puebla Oaxaca. Los ejemplares revisados describen en extenso comparan con más parecidas.
