The Role of the Earthworm, Pheretima (Metaphire) hilgendorfi, in Terrestrial Ecosystem Nutrient Cycling
In the gut tissues and contents of the earthworm Pheretima (Metaphire) hilgendorfi, cellulase activity which contributes to the terrestrial ecosystem nutrient cycling has been detected. The origin of the cellulase production, whether it is the earthworm itself or the microorganisms, has not been established at the molecular level. In our study, a cellulase [endo-β-1,4glucanase (EGase), EC3.2.1....
متن کاملEndophytic phyllosphere fungi and nutrient cycling in terrestrial ecosystems
The importance of phyllosphere fungi to ecosystem functioning via soil processes has aroused increasing interest during the last decade. Here, we briefly review the current knowledge of how the foliar endophytic fungi and nutrient cycling interact. Recent findings suggest that endophytes may affect plant litter quality, organisms that control litter decomposition and the availability of nutrien...
متن کاملBat diversity of Ilha da Marambaia, Southern Rio de Janeiro State, Brazil (Chiroptera, Mammalia).
Few sites have been well sampled for bats, and samplings in islands are even scarcer. Therefore, the objectives of the present study were: (1) to list the bat species of Ilha da Marambaia; (2) to compare richness, abundance and biomass of bat guilds found there; (3) to analyse abundance patterns of bat species; and (4) to compare richness, abundance and composition of the bat fauna among differ...
متن کاملMolecular characterization of bromeliads from northeast Brazil.
Bromeliaceae is an important botany family that includes many species with economic value; demand for members of this family is increasing. However, illegal collection frequently occurs, drastically reducing the species populations; thus, it is necessary to collect and store Bromeliaceae genetic material. In this study, we identified and quantified genetic variability of the Bromeliad family us...
متن کاملParasites in stool samples in the environment of Ilha da Marambaia, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil: an approach in public health.
This research aimed to describe the frequency of parasites in stool samples in the environment of Ilha da Marambaia, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. One hundred and five stool samples were collected and processed by the coproparasitological techniques ethyl acetate sedimentation and centrifuge-flotation using saturated sugar solution. Parasites were detected in 81.9% of the samples, hookworm being the ...
