Mixed-species tree plantations, composed of high-value native rain forest timbers, are potential forestry systems for the subtropics and tropics that can provide ecological and production benefits. Choices of rain forest tree species for mixtures are generally based on the concept that assemblages of fast-growing and light-demanding species are less productive than assemblages of species with d...

The Colorado River drainage basin is home to a diverse but imperiled fish fauna; one putative challenge facing natives is competition with nonnatives. We examined fishes from Colorado River tributaries to address the following questions: Do natives and nonnatives from the same trophic guild consume the same prey items? Will a given species alter its behavior when presented with different prey t...

The main element to assess the potential risks associated with toxic cyanobacterial blooms is precise identification of species. As part a water quality monitoring during 2015 in Santa María del Oro crater lake, Nayarit, bloom was detected. Thus, this work aimed identify bloom-forming cyanobacteria species using polyphasic approach. that produced were Limnoraphis robusta, which represented firs...

The state of Espírito Santo is the major producer Coffea canephora in Brazil. Knowledge genetic reserves fundamental to plant breeding. Therefore, present study characterized and analyzed diversity 600 C. accessions from germplasm bank Incaper based on 38 traits evaluated 24-30-month-old plants. Further, predominant descriptors or were identified, high phenotypic variability was determined. Gen...
