Andira legalis Vell. Toledo (Leguminosae, Papilionoideae) is a deciduous tree of the coastal vegetation of Brazil. It was studied in the restinga ecosystems of the Atlantic coast along a moisture gradient of open dry restinga (annual precipitation 800 mm, water table high at 0.9–1.2 m but partially saline), intermediate restinga (annual precipitation 1164 mm, water table low at 2–3 m) and wet restinga...
This paper provides a synthesis of the three papers published in the series “Ecophysiology of selected tree species in different plant communities at the periphery of the Atlantic forest of SE – Brazil” (Trees, this issue). We reviewed data obtained for seven tree species, belonging to the legume family and the genus Clusia of the Clusiaceae. These groups were chosen because legumes are the most abundant...
Three species of Clusia, namely two CAM-species (C. hilariana Schlecht. and C. fluminensis Planch. et Triana) and a C3-species (C. parviflora Saldanha et Engl.) were studied in different plant communities at the periphery of the Atlantic Forest in the state of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The sites chosen were an inselberg (C. parviflora), a range of wet restinga – dry restinga – semideciduous dry forest...
Araucaria angustifolia (Bertol.) Kuntze is an indigenous conifer restricted to the southern region of South America. In this on-site field study, we provide a detailed description of the nitrogen compounds and sugars allocated to the different plant compartments in tall adult trees, young trees about 2–3 m tall and small seedlings at its northernmost occurrence in the mountains of Itatiaia (20°25′S;...
