Journal ArticleDOI
Precipitation mediates the effect of human disturbance on the Brazilian Caatinga vegetation
Kátia F. Rito,Kátia F. Rito,Víctor Arroyo-Rodríguez,Rubens Teixeira de Queiroz,Inara R. Leal,Marcelo Tabarelli +5 more
TL;DR: The findings indicate that rapid climatic changes in the region will probably have strong negative effects on this SDTF and the effects of human disturbances on vegetation may also depend on precipitation, as expected.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of chronic anthropogenic disturbance and rainfall on the specialization of ant–plant mutualistic networks in the Caatinga, a Brazilian dry forest
Talita Câmara,Inara R. Leal,Nico Blüthgen,Fernanda M. P. Oliveira,Rubens Teixeira de Queiroz,Xavier Arnan +5 more
TL;DR: This study investigates the separate and combined effects of CADs and rainfall levels on the specialization of mutualistic networks in the Caatinga, a seasonally dry tropical forest typical of north-eastern Brazil and highlights the vulnerability of dry forest ant-plant networks to climate change.
Journal ArticleDOI
Flora da Paraíba, Brasil: Erythroxylaceae Kunth
Maria Iracema Bezerra Loiola,Maria de Fátima Agra,George Sidney Baracho,Rubens Teixeira de Queiroz +3 more
TL;DR: A taxonomic treatment of the Erythroxylaceae family was undertaken as part of the project "Flora da Paraiba" which aims to identify and catalogue the species of the local flora.
Journal ArticleDOI
Landscape urbanization threatens plant phylogenetic diversity in the Brazilian Atlantic Forest
Valdecir Silva-Junior,Danielle G. Souza,Rubens Teixeira de Queiroz,Luiz Gustavo Rodrigues Souza,Elâine M. S. Ribeiro,Bráulio A. Santos +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used a patch-landscape approach in an urbanizing region of the Brazilian Atlantic Forest to test whether the increase in landscape urbanization reduces plant species density, phylogenetic richness and divergence, and increases the relatedness among co-occurring individuals and species.
Journal ArticleDOI
Seed morphology: an addition to the taxonomy of Tephrosia (Leguminosae, Papilionoideae, Millettieae) from South America
TL;DR: Seed morphology was studied using scanning electron microscopy in 13 species, one subspecies and one forma of Tephrosia Pers.
