1. Community structure of invertebrate fauna in Central Chilean Rivers
Resumo Objetivo Os sistemas fluviais do Chile central são curtos, íngremes e fluem rapidamente. Eles são caracterizados por regimes de descarga dominados por chuvas e neve derretida. A fauna de invertebrados desses sistemas fluviais é altamente endêmica. O objetivo do presente estudo foi descrever a estrutura da comunidade de invertebrados em oito sis

2. How accurate are pedotransfer functions for bulk density for Brazilian soils?
ABSTRACT: The aim of this study was to evaluate the performance of pedotransfer functions (PTFs) available in the literature to estimate soil bulk density (ρb) in different regions of Brazil, using different metrics. The predictive capacity of 25 PTFs was evaluated using the mean absolute error (MAE), mean error (ME), root mean squared error (RMSE), coeffic

3. Phylogenetic community structure reveals differences in plant community assembly of an oligotrophic white-sand ecosystem from the Brazilian Atlantic Forest
ABSTRACT Mussununga, an oligotrophic sandy savanna ecosystem, comprises distinct physiognomies along fire, water and nutrient availability gradients. Grasslands and woodlands are constrained at the opposite poles of these gradients, with grasslands occurring in areas with poorer soils and higher levels of both water-stress and fire intensity. According to th

4. A closer look at the main actors of Neotropical floodplain food webs: functional classification and niche overlap of dominant benthic invertebrates in a floodplain lake of Paraná River
ABSTRACT Functional classification of animals is necessary to enhance the predictive power of food web models. However, while there is a large database for functional classification of benthic invertebrates (Functional Feeding Groups, FFG) in the temperate zone, the attribution of individual species of riverine invertebrates is still in its infancies in the

5. Spectrophotometric analysis of crown discoloration induced by MTA- and ZnOE-based sealers
Crown discoloration can be induced by root canal sealer remnants following root canal treatment. Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate chromatic alterations in human tooth crowns induced by a Mineral Trioxide Aggregate-based sealer (MTA Fillapex®) and a commonly used ZnOE-based sealer (Roth-811). The tested null hypothesis was that the applicati

6. Regressão aleatória na detecção de QTL para características de crescimento de suínos / Random regression to detect QTL for growth traits in swine
Muitos estudos são voltados para a busca de QTL (locos de características quantitativas) que afetam características de crescimento em suínos, sendo que a quase totalidade tem encontrado QTL com efeitos significativos. No entanto, a maioria destes estudos utiliza informações referentes a peso corporal em idades específicas ou ganho de peso médio. Dess

7. Ecologia de taxocenose de anfíbios anuros em poças temporárias na caatinga
In theroy, the influence of phylogeny in community structure implies that phylogenetically close species may show similar characteristics determined by their evolutionary history. In a fine scale, this is useful to identify processes of microevolution. We used phylogenetic and ecological data to investigate the determinant factors of the relationships among

8. Assembly rules in Muscid Fly assemblages in the grasslands Biome of Southern Brazil
The distribution of muscid species (Diptera) in grasslands fragments of southern Brazil was assessed using null models according to three assembly rules: (a) negatively-associated distributions; (b) guild proportionality; and (c) constant body-size ratios. We built presence/absence matrices and calculated the C-score index to test negatively-associated distr

9. Modelling evapotranspiration for reference crop and acid lime orchard based on regression and artificial neural network tecniques / Modelagem da evapotranspiração de referência e da evapotranspiração de limeira ácida com aplicação de técnicas de regressão e redes neurais artificiais
The main objective of this study was to test artificial neural networks (ANNs) of multilayer perceptron type (MLP) for estimating reference evapotranspiration, diffusive leaf conductance and crop evapotranspiration of a mature and irrigated citrus orchard. The ANNs were trained under conjugate gradient algorithm. The sigmoid and linear activation functions w

10. Planejamento em empreendimento de agricultura irrigada visando à otimização do retorno financeiro e uso da água / Planning in enterprise of irrigated agriculture in order to optimize the financial return and use water / Planning in enterprise of irrigated agriculture in order to optimize the financial return and use water / Planejamento em empreendimento de agricultura irrigada visando à otimização do retorno financeiro e uso da água
In the basin where the city of Garanhuns-PE is inserted, there are quantitative conflicts related to water resources, with potential claims over the availability. This fact makes relevant the need for proper planning of water use, especially with respect to irrigated agriculture. In recent years has increased the development and use of simulation models of w

11. Evolução do crânio dos macacos do Velho Mundo: uma abordagem de genética quantitativa / Cranial evolution of Old World monkeys and Apes: a quantitative genetics approach
This is a study on the cranial diversification of the Catarrhini, a large group of primates that includes all Old World monkeys and apes, bringing together two approaches to investigate the evolution of complex characters: quantitative genetics and morphological integration. It has three main goals: 1) to compare magnitudes and patterns of inter-trait relati

12. Ant community structure in Neotropical savannas: a test of generality contrasting Brazil and Australia / Estrutura de comunidades de formigas em savanas arbóreas tropicais: um teste da generalidade de padrões ecológicos contrastando Brasil e Austrália
The aim of this study was to compare ant community structure between the savannas of Brazil and Australia. The study was conducted in woodland savanna areas nearby Darwin, in northern Australia, and Uberlândia and Caldas Novas in central Brazil. The sampling design consisted of eight 400 m line transects, four in each continent, with eight pitfall traps and
