(2018) [Artículo de periódico]Fish diets have been traditionally studied through the direct visual identification of food items found in their stomachs. Stomach contents of Vandeliinae and Stegophilinae (family Trichomycteridae) parasite catfishes, ... -
Unveiling fungal community structure along different levels of anthropic disturbance in a South American subtropical lagoon
(2023) [Artículo de periódico]Studies of fungal communities through amplicon metagenomics in aquatic environments, particularly in freshwater ecosystems, are still relatively recent. Unfortunately, many of these water bodies are facing growing threats ... -
Unveiling the germination requirements for Cereus hildmannianus (Cactaceae), a potential new crop from southern and southeastern Brazil
(2021) [Artículo de periódico]Cereus hildmannianus K. Schum is a columnar cactus native to South and Southeast Brazil. The cultivation of this species seems justifiable for several reasons: its fruits are spineless and edible; it is not threatened with ... -
Updated birth prevalence and relative frequency of mucopolysaccharidoses across Brazilian regions
(2021) [Artículo de periódico]The mucopolysaccharidoses (MPS) are a group of lysosomal storage disorders caused by 11 enzyme deficiencies, classified into seven types. Data on the birth prevalence of each MPS type are available for only a few countries, ... -
Updates on extratropical region climbing plant flora : news regarding a still-neglected diversity
(2019) [Artículo de periódico]Most studies concerning climbing plants have focused on lianas, forest ecosystems, and tropical regions. Thus, the majority of existing information is not relevant to all climbing plants (lianas and vines) or all ecoregions ... -
