La embriogénesis somática vegetal es un proceso natural que puede replicarse in vitro mediante la adición externa de reguladores del crecimiento vegetal. Existen reportes indicando que la aplicación de brasinosteroides incrementó el número de embriones cuando se adicionan a la embriogénesis somática inducida por citocininas en Coffea arabica. Debido a que la embriogénesis...
I here describe 24 taxa of desmids from the Colombian Oriental Plains (Orinoquía). Dacidium undulatum var. dilatatum (Cleve) West y G.S. West; Micrasterias arcuata var. robusta O. Borg; Micrasterias radiata var. gracillima. G.M. Smith; Micrasterias torreyi var. curvata. Willi Krieger; Pleurotaenium constrictum var. laeve Irénée-Marie; Pseudomicraterias arcuata (Bailey) C.B...
Ichthyoelephas longirostris is an endemic species of Colombia distributed in the Magdalena-Cauca and Rancheria basins that have been declared in danger of extinction. Knowledge of its bio-ecology, particularly its reproductive aspects, is limited. Therefore, the study aimed to determine the testicular maturity stage and seminal quality of I. longirostris from the Cauca River...
La urbanización causa transformaciones en el hábitat de la fauna silvestre que generan alteraciones en la dinámica poblacional, haciéndolas más propensas a declives y extinciones locales. Sin embargo, algunos estudios de lagartijas andinas de la familia Gymnophthalmidae resaltan la capacidad de estas especies para ocupar hábitats altamente transformados, sugiriendo una posible...
Coastal erosion is directly related to sediment imbalance that affects beaches worldwide and possesses the potential to alter the conditions requisite for plant communities. This research aimed to characterize the forest composition and environmental gradient in two protected areas with coastal erosion in the Southern Caribbean, Costa Rica. Seventy circular plots of 15 m diameter...
Los comúnmente conocidos como pequeños escarabajos coprófagos pertenecen a la subfamilia Aphodiinae y sus miembros son de menor tamaño en comparación con su linaje hermano Scarabaeinae. Sin embargo, la subfamilia está constituida por alrededor de 3300 especies. De las diferentes tribus en América, Eupariini es especialmente diversa con alrededor de 28 géneros y 333 especies, y en...
Solanum lycopersicum var. cerasiforme is widely distributed in Veracruz, Mexico, and represents genetic material that must be evaluated as a genetic pool of groups of tomato plants that can be used in a management program. The objective of the study was to evaluate the genetic diversity of S. l. var. cerasiforme from 12 sites in the state of Veracruz, Mexico, using SSR markers...
Floristic studies carried out in forests tend to focus on woody plants with diameter at breast height (DBH)≥2.5 cm, so non-tree components, important in the composition and structure of forests, are excluded from the sampling and, therefore, from the floristic analysis. We evaluate the contribution of the different growth habits to the total richness of terrestrial species in...
The ecological restoration of degraded areas due to agricultural and livestock activities is an increasing need. The present study was carried out to evaluate the performance of 29 native species planted and their relationship with several edaphic and topographic variables in areas of the “Más Bosques para Medellín” program. This program is implementing an ecological restoration...
For a better understanding of the factors involved in biological sewage treatment and the importance of the planktonic community in stabilization ponds, this research evaluated the functioning of a domestic sewage treatment system, considering pollutant removal, with special attention to the planktonic community. The system was composed of an up‑flow anaerobic sludge blanket...
A la fecha, algunos estudios han encontrado que el polimorfismo en una población de la lagartija Sceloporus minor del centro de México no se mantiene por partición de nicho, dejando abierta la posibilidad de que el polimorfismo se mantenga por selección dependiente de la frecuencia o por variación en el potencial reproductor. Por lo tanto, el objetivo de este estudio es hacer una...
Genera and species of the Chironomidae family have traditionally been considered bioindicators of poor water quality or deplorable ecological status, which is evidenced by the low scores for this family in indices such as BMWP for Europe and its adaptations for Latin America. Considering the high diversity and abundance of this family, it is necessary to identify the habitat...
The study of animal embryonic development is of great interest because of the usefulness of this information as a basis for comparative studies at the anatomical, physiological, and evolutionary levels. The yellow-headed gecko Gonatodes albogularis is a dwarf diurnal gecko with a wide distribution in the Neotropics; few studies have been carried out on reproductive biology and...
Ecological studies on habitat use patterns on the distribution of Plecoptera species facilitate the understanding of this population dynamics. Our objective was to determine the distribution and abundance of Anacroneuria caraca Stark, 1995 and A. marta Zúñiga and Stark, 2002 in different microhabitats in the Gaira River during an annual hydrological cycle. Species were identified...
The present study analyzed the feeding habits and morphometric parameters of Potamotrygon magdalenae in the Embalse del Guájaro, located in the lower basin of the Magdalena River, Atlántico department, Colombia. Twenty-four individuals were collected during April 2018 using traditional fishing methods and the stomach content was analyzed using the vacuity coefficient, numerical...
Giardia duodenalis is a protozoan parasite of great public health importance, since it causes the most prevalent gastrointestinal disease in the world, giardiasis. Pharmacological treatment for this parasitosis consists of the administration of nitroimidazoles and benzimidazoles, however, resistance to treatment and multiple side effects have been detected. For this reason, in...
Anthropogenic activities like deforestation or fires cause the loss of diversity worldwide. Ecuador is considered a "hotspot" and is home to 25000 species of plants, among which ferns stand out, but their study is still limited. The present research evaluated the state of conservation of the ferns and lycophytes in the Experimental Station La Favorita, located in the western...
Biology as a scientific discipline faces epistemological and bioethical challenges, which arise at the dawn of the 21st century. This discipline must address problems such as the loss of biological diversity and vocational training, generate strategies to face this situation and integrate bioethics to establish new forms of relationship between humans and other life forms. Also...
The springtail Seira tinguira was observed for the first time in the state of Minas Gerais in a colony of the social wasp Polistes ferreri. The colony was collected in the Botanical Garden of the Federal University of Juiz de Fora, a fragment of Montane Seasonal Semideciduous Tropical Forest, located in the urban perimeter of the municipality of Juiz de Fora, southeast of the...
