1. The aquatic species Pontederia azurea and P. crassipes (Pontederiaceae) in the Pantanal, Brazil: evidence of how plant structure can simultaneously reflect phylogeny and ecology
ABSTRACT Hydric fluctuations in the Pantanal comprise annual dry and wet seasons that modify local diversity and plant morphology and anatomy. Widespread in this wetland are the sympatric Pontederia azurea and P. crassipes, which, although primarily aquatic, can also develop in non-flooded environments. This study undertook a comparative investigation of the

2. Caracteres importantes na identificação de espécies de Ludwigia (Onagraceae) ocorrentes no Recôncavo da Bahia, Brasil
Resumo Na flora aquática do Brasil, o gênero Ludwigia apresenta ca. 48 espécies. A maioria das espécies de Ludwigia é anfíbia, apresentando uma grande plasticidade fenotípica, o que torna sua identificação complexa. O objetivo deste trabalho foi realizar um levantamento taxonômico e analisar caracteres diagnósticos na delimitação das espécies d

3. Otobone®: Three-dimensional printed Temporal Bone Biomodel for Simulation of Surgical Procedures
Abstract Introduction The anatomy of the temporal bone is complex due to the large number of structures and functions grouped in this small bone space, which do not exist in any other region in the human body. With the difficulty of obtaining anatomical parts and the increasing number of ear, nose and throat (ENT) doctors, there was a need to create altern

4. Phenotypic Plasticity of Pimenta pseudocaryophyllus (Gomes) Landrum Under Different Light Conditions
ABSTRACT The heterogeneous light pattern in forest environments leads to specific morphological and physiological responses. However, anthropogenic pressures in areas such as Atlantic Forest and Cerrado are modifying the light availability, and consequently the forest community composition. The aim of this study was to investigate the plasticity of forest sp

5. MORPHOLOGICAL AND PHYSIOLOGICAL PLASTICITY OF SAPLINGS OF Cabralea canjerana (Vell.) MART. IN DIFFERENT LIGHT CONDITIONS
RESUMO Este trabalho foi realizado com o objetivo de verificar a plasticidade dos folíolos de plantas jovens de Cabralea canjerana e sua capacidade de adaptação a diferentes ambientes luminosos por meio de características morfológicas e fisiológicas. Para isto, foram selecionadas 12 plantas de fragmento de Floresta Estacional Decidual secundário, send

6. WATER AND LIGHT STRESSES DRIVE ACCLIMATION DURING THE ESTABLISHMENT OF A TIMBER TREE UNDER DIFFERENT INTENSITIES OF RAINFOREST CANOPY COVERAGE
ABSTRACT The loss of structure, diversity and functions in the rainforests makes it necessary to develop active strategies to restore their economic and ecological values. Planting selected species can help to catalyze ecosystem restoration. The capacity of the plants to survive and grow in the rainforests, where the canopy coverage changes stochastically, i

7. Crane flies (Diptera, Tipuloidea) from southern Neotropical salt marshes: survey with DNA barcoding
ABSTRACT Crane flies are the most diverse group within Diptera, but they are rarely studied in coastal ecosystems. Considering the scarcity of information on the biology and ecology of this group in the Neotropics, and the sparse literature available for taxonomic identification, we developed a descriptive checklist that incorporates morphology and DNA barco

8. In silico characterization of microRNAs-like sequences in the genome of Paracoccidioides brasiliensis
Abstract Eukaryotic cells have different mechanisms of post-transcriptional regulation. Among these mechanisms, microRNAs promote regulation of targets by cleavage or degradation of the mRNA. Fungi of the Paracoccidioides complex are the etiological agents of the main systemic mycosis of Latin America. These fungi present a plasticity to adapt and survive in

9. Genetic diversity of a Paspalum notatum Flügge germplasm collection
ABSTRACT The objective of this study was to assess the genetic diversity among accessions of Paspalum notatum based on morphological marker traits and identify those morphological traits that contribute most to the variability among accessions. Fifty-three accessions were evaluated for the following traits: length, width, color, and pubescence of sheath; len

10. Morphological analysis and DNA methylation in Conyza bonariensis L. cronquist (Asteraceae) phenotypes
ABSTRACT The species Conyza bonariensis (L.) cause losses in agriculture due to their invasive capacity and resistance to herbicides like glyphosate. The species of this genus exhibit phenotypic plasticity, which complicates their identification and characterization. Thus, experiments were performed with 2 extreme C. bonariensis phenotypes (called broad leaf

11. Ecology of the non-native snail Sinotaia cf quadrata (Caenogastropoda: Viviparidae). A study in a lowland stream of South America with different water qualities
ABSTRACT Sinotaia quadrata is a snail native from Asia recorded for the first time in South America in 2009 in central Argentina. In 2015, this species was also found in a lowland stream with different water qualities. Our aims were to contribute to the knowledge of its population ecology and to compare the individuals from the two locations anatomically. Sn

12. Phenotypic plasticity associated to environmental hypoxia in the neotropical serrasalmid Piaractus mesopotamicus (Holmberg, 1887) (Characiformes: Serrasalmidae)
ABSTRACT Many South American characid fishes develop reversible dermal protuberances in the jaws to optimize aquatic surface respiration (ASR) during hypoxia. To date, basic aspects of this adaptation remain unknown, mainly due to the scarcity of experimental studies. In laboratory experiments, we determined time necessary for the complete formation and reve
