Codium tomentosum is currently cultivated through vegetative propagation (cuttings) in tumble culture systems targeting niche markets. To scale up and expand its aquaculture production, optimization of propagation and culture methods is key. In Asia, artificial seed production via regeneration of isolated utricles and medullary filaments has already been established for the commercial production of Codium fragile . Our prelimi...
Mechanical traumatic injuries as a cause of death in free-ranging neotropical non-human primates living in anthropogenic matricesNARA Subscribed
Traumatic injuries are a major cause of morbidity and mortality in free-ranging non-human primates (NHPs), often associated with anthropogenic pressures such as habitat loss, urbanization, and interactions with domestic animals. This study characterized some epidemiological, spatial, and pathological patterns of mechanical traumatic injuries in free-ranging non-human primates from anthropogenically altered areas of the Federal...
Floating Wetlands Islands for Crop Production: A Comprehensive Review and Bibliometric AnalysisNARA Subscribed
Floating wetland islands (FWIs), traditionally applied for ecological restoration and water purification, are increasingly recognized for their multifunctional potential. Their ability to combine environmental remediation with food production positions FWIs as a promising nature-based solution (NbS) for advancing sustainable development. To identify research trends and knowledge gaps in this emerging field, a bibliometric anal...
Functional diversity of Brazilian bees: revealing the unique patterns of the NeotropicsNARA Subscribed
Bees are essential for ecosystem functioning, pollinating many wild and crop plant species. Predicting which species are most vulnerable to global changes, and how their loss may impact ecosystems and human well-being, is critical. Comprehensive information on bee response and effect traits is fundamental to these assessments. However, the Raunkiærian shortfall—insufficient trait data—remains significant for bees, particularly...
Unveiling the Secret: Effect of Grape Stems as Soil Amendments in Earthworm Tail Regeneration and Reproductive SuccessNARA Subscribed
The increasing reliance on agricultural machinery to improve agronomic output and meet food demands disrupts soil structure and poses risks to soil biota, including mechanical injuries to earthworms. This study assesses the potential of grape stems as a soil amendment to promote earthworm regeneration and investigate their impact on reproduction and oxidative stress. Four experimental conditions were established: a control gro...
