A global meta-analysis of the relative extent of intraspecific trait variation in plant communities.
- A. Siefert, C. Violle, +42 authors D. Wardle

- Ecology letters
- 1 December 2015
Recent studies have shown that accounting for intraspecific trait variation (ITV) may better address major questions in community ecology. However, a general picture of the relative extent of ITV… Expand
Discriminating trait‐convergence and trait‐divergence assembly patterns in ecological community gradients
- V. D. Pillar, L. Duarte, E. Sosinski, Fernando Joner
- Biology
- 1 April 2009
Question: Whereas similar ecological requirements lead to trait-convergence assembly patterns (TCAP) of species in communities, the interactions controlling how species associate produce… Expand
A framework for metacommunity analysis of phylogenetic structure.
- V. D. Pillar, L. Duarte
- Biology, Medicine
- Ecology letters
- 1 May 2010
It is well known that species evolutionary history plays a crucial role in community assembly. Here, we offer a formal analytical framework to integrate in metacommunity analysis the species'… Expand
Role of nurse plants in Araucaria Forest expansion over grassland in south Brazil
- L. Duarte, Melina M. G. Dos‐Santos, S. Hartz, V. D. Pillar
- Biology
- 1 June 2006
Araucaria Forest expansion over grassland takes place under wet climate conditions and low disturbance and it is hypothesized that isolated trees established on grassland facilitate the establishment… Expand
Ecophysiological responses of Araucaria angustifolia (Araucariaceae) seedlings to different irradiance levels.

- Biology
- 7 September 2000
Brazilian pine (Araucaria angustifolia [Bert.] O.Ktze.) is an indigenous conifer of the southern region of South America, typically regarded as a sun-loving species. However, there is insufficient… Expand

Nurse rocks influence forest expansion over native grassland in southern Brazil
- Marcos B. Carlucci, L. Duarte, V. D. Pillar
- Geography
- 1 February 2011
Questions: Do small rocky outcrops favor forest plant colonization and establishment in grasslands? If so, what are the potential mechanisms involved in this process?
Location: Araucaria… Expand
Influences of sampling effort on detected patterns and structuring processes of a Neotropical plant-hummingbird network.

Virtually all empirical ecological interaction networks to some extent suffer from undersampling. However, how limitations imposed by sampling incompleteness affect our understanding of ecological… Expand
Bivalve distribution in hydrographic regions in South America: historical overview and conservation
- Daniel Pereira, M. C. Mansur, +13 authors C. Lasso
- Biology
- Hydrobiologia
- 1 October 2013
Based on literature review and malacological collections, 168 native freshwater bivalve and five invasive species have been recorded for 52 hydrographic regions in South America. The higher species… Expand
Phylogenetic habitat filtering influences forest nucleation in grasslands
- L. Duarte
- Biology
- 1 February 2011
Because species-environment interactions are mediated by phenotypic tradeoffs, the maintenance of ancestral traits in some phylogenetic clades and the emergence of evolutionary novelties in others… Expand
