Strong floristic distinctiveness across Neotropical successional forests
(Science, 2022)
Forests that regrow naturally on abandoned fields are important for restoring biodiversity and ecosystem services, but can they also preserve the distinct regional tree floras? Using the floristic composition of 1215 early ...
Influence of Fermentation Time on the Chemical and Functional Composition of Different Cocoa Clones from Southern Colombia
(MDPI, 2023-11-16)
Cocoa bean quality depends mainly on genetic material, edaphoclimatic factors and post-harvest processes such as fermentation. The impact of the fermentation process on the chemical and functional composition of different ...
Multi-dimensional temperature sensitivity of protected tropical mountain rain forests
(Frontiers, 2024-01-09)
Tropical mountain rain forests (TMRF, natural forests at > 300 m asl) are globally important for biodiversity and ecosystem services and are believed to be highly vulnerable to climate change. But there are no specific ...
Shade canopy density variables in cocoa and coffee agroforestry systems
(Springer Nature, 2023-12-18)
An estimated 3.4 million hectares of cocoa and 9.7 million hectares of coffee are cultivated, globally, under shade trees, i.e. in agroforestry systems. Shade canopies are characterized in terms of tree density (N, trees ...
Influence of Fermentation Time on the Chemical and Functional Composition of Different Cocoa Clones from Southern Colombia
(MDPI, 2023-11-16)
Cocoa bean quality depends mainly on genetic material, edaphoclimatic factors and postharvest processes such as fermentation. The impact of the fermentation process on the chemical and functional composition of different ...
Botanical diversity, structure and composition in cocoa agroforest systems in Alta Verapaz, Guatemala
(Scientia Agropecuaria, 2023-06-05)
The tree composition in cocoa agroforestry systems (CAFS) in Guatemala is valued for providing a number of ecosystem services. Despite the importance of the trees in these systems, little is known about the tree species ...
Active in situ and passive airborne fluorescence measurements for water stress detection on a fescue field
(Photosynthesis Research, 2022)
LEDFLEX is a micro-lidar dedicated to the measurement of vegetation fluorescence. The light source consists of 4 blue Light-Emitting Diodes (LED) to illuminate part of the canopy in order to average the spatial variability ...
Impact of agro-forestry systems on the aroma generation of coffee beans
(Frontiers, 2022)
A long experiment has been established since 2000 at CATIE (Tropical Agricultural Research and Higher Education Center), Turrialba, Costa Rica. Twenty agro-forestry systems with different shade types and managements (organic ...
SNP markers found in non‑coding regions can distinguish among low‑variant genotypes of Arabica and other coffee species
(Genetic Resources and Crop Evolution, 2022)
Development of efficient and scalable methods for molecular identification of Coffea spp. are necessary to accelerate studies related to the characterization of germplasm for both conservation or breeding purposes, and the ...
A review of wildfires effects across the Gran Chaco region
(Forest Ecology and Management, 2023-12-01)
The main objective of this review paper is to synthesize studies related to fire occurrence, the effects of fire on native vegetation at the Gran Chaco scale, and changes in fire regimes, in order to identify current ...
