(2009)Xanthogaleruca luteola Müller (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) es un insecto desfoliador de especies del género Ulmus sp., que actualmente se encuentra en diversas regiones de Chile, especialmente en la zona centro. Daña ... -
Spatial phylogenetics of the vascular flora of Chile
(Elsevier, 2017)Current geographic patterns of biodiversity are a consequence of the evolutionary history of the lineages that comprise them. This study was aimed at exploring how evolutionary features of the vascular flora of Chile are ... -
Field performance of various Pinus radiata breeding families established on a drought-prone site in central Chile
(Springer, 2017)Background: Pinus radiata D. Don is in its third generation of selective breeding on contrasting site types in central Chile, creating interest in its responses to selection and any differential adaptation to site types. ... -
Caracterización del diámetro, ángulo de inserción y longevidad de ramas vivas axiales de Nothofagus obliqua
(Facultad de Agronomía y Forestal de la Universidad de Pinar del Río, 2017)El desconocimiento de la dinámica de crecimiento de la copa viva en los renovales de la especie Nothofagus obliqua limita fuertemente la objetiva formulación de esquemas silvícolas orientados a la producción de madera ... -
Analysis of within and between-GCM uncertainties of runoff projections in Mediterranean-like catchments
(Australian bureau meteorology, 2017)Streamflow reductions have been reported in mid-latitude Southern Hemisphere (SH) catchments, in particular in the southwest of Western Australia (SWA) and in central Chile (CC), following decreases in precipitation since ... -
Caracterización cromosómica de Rhodolirium laetum (Phil.) Ravenna (Amaryllidaceae) a través de cariotipificación e hibridación in-situ de ADN ribosómico
(Universidad de Concepción, 2017)Rhodolirium laetum (Phil.) Ravenna has a karyotype 2n = 2x = 16 and the haploid formula 4m + 2sm + 2st. One pair of rDNA 45S signals and two pairs of rDNA 5S were detected through fluorescent in-situ hybridization. The ... -
Variability in seed germination and seedling growth at the intra- and interprovenance levels of Nothofagus glauca (Lophozonia glauca), an endemic species of Central Chile
(Springer, 2017-05-09)Background: Patterns of seed germination and subsequent seedling growth of the endemic species Nothofagus glauca (Phil.) Krasser (Lophozonia glauca) (Hualo) were studied in two provenances from Mediterranean Central Chile ... -
Phylogenetic relationships and generic re-arrangements in "South Andean Loasas" (Loasaceae)
(Int Assoc Plant Taxonomy, 2017-04)Loasaceae, a mostly American group, is one of the largest families of Cornales. In spite of considerable progress over the last 20 years, the relationships of some clades remain controversial, especially in the "South ... -
Compact development minimizes the impacts of urban growth on native mammals
(Wiley, 2017-06)1. Unprecedented global human population growth and rapid urbanization of rural and natural lands highlight the urgent need to integrate biodiversity conservation into planning for urban growth. A challenging question for ... -
Tree seedlings respond to both light and soil nutrients in a Patagonian evergreendeciduous forest
(Public Library Science, 2017)Seedlings of co-occurring species vary in their response to resource availability and this has implications for the conservation and management of forests. Differential shade-tolerance is thought to influence seedling ... -
Evaluación de la aplicación de biosólidos en plantaciones de Eucalyptus globulus, en Chile central
(Universidad Nacional de Cuyo, Facultad Ciencias Agrarías, 2016)Fertilization with biosolid is an option for beneficial use of waste generated from wastewater treatment plant. At this point of view, it is necessary know its effect in forest plantations. The study was established in two ... -
Is human disturbance causing differential preference of agricultural landscapes by taruka and feral donkeys in high Andean deserts during the dry season?
(Elsevier, 2016)Areas with high shrub and grass cover are scarce and important for arid-land ungulates. Unfortunately, agricultural activities are often concentrated in such areas causing ungulates either to include croplands as foraging ... -
Stem and soil CO2 efflux responses of Pinus radiata plantations to temperature, season, age, time (day/night) and fertilization
(Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile. Facultad de Agronomía Ingeniería Forestal, 2016)Stem CO2 efflux is a highly variable component of the carbon budget of forest ecosystems. It reflects the balance between the CO2 respired by the living stem tissues, less the CO2 dissolved in the xylem sap moving upward ... -
Detailed dynamic land cover mapping of Chile: Accuracy improvement by integrating multi-temporal data
(Elsevier, 2016)Stretching over 4300 km north to south, Chile is a special country with complicated landscapes and rich biodiversity. Accurate and timely updated land cover map of Chile in detailed classification categories is highly ... -
Assessing floristic representativeness in the protected areas national system of Chile: are vegetation types a good surrogate for plant species?
(Cambridge Univ. Press, 2016)Conservation planning relies heavily on representativeness patterns. In Chile, this has not been assessed at the species level. This study evaluates floristic representativeness in the National System of Protected Areas ... -
The borage family (Boraginaceae s.str.): A revised infrafamilial classification based on new phylogenetic evidence, with emphasis on the placement of some enigmatic genera
(International Association for Plant Taxonomy, 2016)Boraginaceae s.str. is a subcosmopolitan family of 1600 to 1700 species in around 90 genera, and recent phylogenetic studies indicate that the infrafamilial classification as currently used is highly obsolete. The present ... -
Spatio-Temporal Changes in Structure for a Mediterranean Urban Forest: Santiago, Chile 2002 to 2014
(MDPI, 2016)There is little information on how urban forest ecosystems in South America and Mediterranean climates change across both space and time. This study statistically and spatially analyzed the spatio-temporal dynamics of ... -
Familial classification of the Boraginales
