Anurans in a forest remnant in the transition zone between cerrado and Atlantic Rain Forest domains in Southeastern Brazil.
This study presents the species richness, temporal distribution and reproductive activity of anurans from the Uaimií State Forest (Floresta Estadual do Uaimií - FLOE Uaimií), situated in the Quadrilátero Ferrífero region, municipality of Ouro Preto, Minas Gerais state, Brazil. Field activities were performed monthly from September 2009 to August 2010. We recorded 36 anurans species, distributed...
متن کاملSoil disturbance by vertebrates alters seed predation, movement and germination in an African rain forest
Biopedturbation, or animal-caused soil disturbance, may be important for development and maintenance of small-scale heterogeneity in ecosystems with the potential to alter seed mortality and recruitment. However, its role in tropical forests has been largely ignored. This study explored effects of vertebrate biopedturbation on seed (1) microsite heterogeneity, (2) predation and (3) germination ...
متن کاملScreening of antibacterial extracts from plants native to the Brazilian Amazon Rain Forest and Atlantic Forest.
More than 20% of the world's biodiversity is located in Brazilian forests and only a few plant extracts have been evaluated for potential antibacterial activity. In the present study, 705 organic and aqueous extracts of plants obtained from different Amazon Rain Forest and Atlantic Forest plants were screened for antibacterial activity at 100 microg/ml, using a microdilution broth assay against...
متن کاملHigh-resolution Image to Map Bamboo-dominated Gaps in the Atlantic Rain Forest, Brazil
This study presents the results referring to the analysis of QuickBird high resolution satellite images to establish patterns associated to the landscape dynamics in bamboo forests at the Intervales Park (São Paulo State, Brazil), considering its ecologic aspects. The methodology was based on visual image interpretation, as a preliminary step for digital processing. The results show the possibi...
متن کاملYeast communities in two Atlantic rain Forest fragments in Southeast Brazil
We studied the yeast communities associated with fruits, mushrooms, tree exudates, and flies of the genus Drosophila, in two Atlantic Rain Forest fragments in state of Minas Gerais, Brazil. A total of 456 samples were collected from Rio Doce State Park and 142 from Ecological Station of Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais. From these samples, 608 yeast isolates were obtained, belonging to 71 d...
