1. Maintenance of wetland plant communities: the role of the seed bank in regeneration of native plants
ABSTRACT Exotic grasses have been introduced into wetlands and can compete with native plants due to their high tolerance of flood and dry periods. Flooding can facilitate seed dispersal of exotic species and reduce the diversity of native species. We compared two grasslands to assess whether seed banks can maintain the diversity of native plants in wetlands

2. Conservation of species-rich subtropical grasslands: traditional management vs. legal conservation requirements in primary and secondary grasslands
ABSTRACT Land-use change is the main cause of biodiversity losses, and for grasslands includes changes in management. The last 10 years has seen afforestation of traditionally grazed grasslands increase considerably in the understudied Serra do Sudeste region of the Brazilian Pampa, turning the region into a mosaic of tree plantations, natural ecosystems (pa

3. Soil seed bank in a subtropical grassland under different grazing intensities
ABSTRACT Grazing is an important determinant for the composition and structure of grasslands; however, soil seed bank (SSB) response to grazing intensity is poorly investigated. We analyzed SSB richness and density in a subtropical grassland in southern Brazil with different forage offers (low, intermediate, high and very high), that is, contrasting grazing

4. Interaction between growth strategies and phosphorus use efficiency in grasses from South America natural grasslands
ABSTRACT South American natural grasslands are composed of several species with different growth strategies, with variations in specific leaf area (SLA), leaf dry matter content (LDMC), specific root length (SRL) and specific root area (SRA). The objective of this study was characterizing in grasses cultivated with different levels of phosphorus (P) in the s

5. Non-random distribution of microsatellite motifs and (TTAGGG)n repeats in the monkey frog Pithecopus rusticus (Anura, Phyllomedusidae) karyotype
Abstract The monkey frog, Pithecopus rusticus (Anura, Phyllomedusidae) is endemic to the grasslands of the Araucarias Plateau, southern Brazil. This species is known only from a small population found at the type locality. Here, we analyzed for the first time the chromosomal organization of the repetitive sequences, including seven microsatellite repeats and

7. Heterogeneity of fern communities in riparian forest remnants from the South Brazilian Campos (Pampa)
Resumo As florestas ripárias apresentam fatores bióticos e abióticos que influenciam a dissimilaridade ambiental, e que refletem a distribuição específica de samambaias. O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a heterogeneidade ambiental associada às comunidades de samambaias terrícolas em remanescentes de mata ciliar dos campos da metade sul do estado

8. A taxonomic synopsis of Cypella (Iridaceae) in Brazil
ABSTRACT A taxonomic synopsis of Cypella (Iridaceae) in Brazil is presented with recognition of 16 species, two of them represented by two subspecies. An identification key to the taxa is provided and species are described and illustrated. New synonyms are indicated, and eight lectotypes, two epitypes and one neotype are designated. Results include distribut

10. Economic Injury Level of Canjiqueira in Native Pastures in Pantanal of Nhecolândia
RESUMO: A planície pantaneira é composta por extensas áreas formadas por diversos tipos de paisagens utilizadas para a pecuária de corte, onde o nível tecnológico utilizado é baixo. O uso do solo é basicamente com forrageiras como gramíneas e herbáceas nativas para o consumo bovino. A invasão de espécies arbustivas nas pastagens é um dos problem

11. Composition and floral diversity in Andean grasslands in natural post-harvest restoration with Lepidium meyenii Walpers
Resumo Os ecossistemas de prados andinos sofrem processos de degradação natural e antropogênica. A mudança de uso da terra para uso agrícola é a maior ameaça com grande perda de biodiversidade, seguido por um processo muito lento de revegetação. O objetivo do estudo foi avaliar a riqueza, abundância e diversidade alfa e beta em áreas de dois, trê

12. Birds of Parque Estadual do Tainhas, an important protected area of the highland grasslands of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil
Abstract Parque Estadual do Tainhas - PET (Tainhas State Park) is a protected area with significant extensions of natural grasslands located in highland grasslands of northeastern Rio Grande do Sul state, Brazil, and recognized as an Important Bird Area. Our aim was to record the bird species richness of PET with a greater sampling effort than previous studi
