For pioneer plants, shaded habitats represent a stressful condition, where sunlight exposure
is below the optimum level and so leaves expand in order to intercept a greater amount of …

Remaining freshwater systems are historically under threat mainly due to human activities
such as agriculture and urbanization. The consequences of such activities are innumerous, …

Gall inducers use these structures as shelters and sources of nutrition. Consequently, they
cause multiple physiological changes in host plants. We studied the impact caused by seed …

The Neotropical genus Forcepsioneura is composed of 11 species that inhabit almost
