Item Biodiversity and ecosystem services in the campo rupestre : a road map for the sustainability of the hottest Brazilian biodiversity hotspot.(2020) Fernandes, Geraldo Wilson Afonso; Garcia, Lucas Arantes; Silva Júnior, Milton Barbosa da; Barbosa, Newton Pimentel de Ulhôa; Batista, Eugênia Kelly Luciano; Silva, Wallace Beiroz Imbrosio da; Resende, Fernando de Moura; Abrahão, Anna; Almada, Emmanuel Duarte; Alves, Elaine; Alves, Natacha Jordania da Silva; Angrisano, Patrícia; Arista, Montserrat; Arroyo, Juan; Arruda, André Jardim; Bahia, Thaíse de Oliveira; Braga, Laura; Brito, Lilian de Almeida; Pereira, Marcos Callisto de Faria; Paiva, Dario Caminha; Carvalho, Marilia; Conceição, Abel Augusto; Costa, Lêda Naiara Pereira; Cruz, Antônio Jorge do Rosário; Blum, Jessica Cunha; Dagevos, John; Dias, Braulio Ferreira de Souza; Pinto, Victor Diniz; Dirzo, Rodolfo; Domingos, Daniel Quedes; Andrade, Livia Echternacht; Fernandes, Stephannie; Figueira, José Eugênio Côrtes; Fiorini, Cecília Fonseca; Giulietti, Ana Maria; Gomes, Augusto; Gomes, Vanessa Matos; Gontijo, Bernardo Machado; Goulart, Fernando Figueiredo; Guerra, Tadeu José de Abreu; Junqueira, Patrícia A.; Santos, Débora Lima; Nascimento, Julia Marques; Meira Neto, João Augusto Alves; Miola, Deise T.

The undeniable importance of conserving tropical forests has drawn most of the conservation spotlight towards it. However, open ecosystems such as the Brazilian Campo Rupestre (rupestrian grassland), have been historically overlooked despite their high diversity and key associated ecosystem services. We highlight major current threats to the persistence of the Campo Rupestre emphasizing its ecological, social, cultural, geoenvironmental, and economic importance. We call attention to the importance of the Campo Rupestre as a reservoir of biodiversity and ecosystem services and offer priority actions that resulted from discussions involving scientists, industry representatives, environmental managers, and other members of civil society. Proposed actions include efforts related to ecological restoration, sustainable ecotourism, protection of traditional ecological knowledge, identification of emerging research questions, and development of tailored public policies. Such issues are integrated into a framework that collectively represents a road map to safeguard the Campo Rupestre from further degradation and steer its historical overexploitation towards sustainable management. Safeguarding the future of non-forest biomes like this poses a challenge to current paradigms of nature conservation. By establishing priorities and guidelines, we propose an actionable plan, which we hope can support informed decision-making policy towards a sustainable use of the Campo Rupestre.Item Foliar water‐uptake strategies are related to leaf water status and gas exchange in plants from a ferruginous rupestrian field.(2019) Souza, Daniela Boanares de; Kozovits, Alessandra Rodrigues; Lemos Filho, José Pires de; Isaias, Rosy Mary dos Santos; Solar, Ricardo Ribeiro de Castro; Duarte, Alexandre Aparecido; Silva, Tiago Vilas Boas da; França, Marcel Giovanni CostaPremise Fog is a frequent event in Brazilian rupestrian field and plays an important role in the physiology of several plant species. Foliar water uptake (FWU) of fog may be fast or slow depending on the species. However, fog water may negatively affect CO2 assimilation. Thus, the interference in the water and carbon balance as a result of different strategies of FWU was evaluated to verify whether fog may mitigate possible water deficit in leaves. Methods Four plant species with different FWU strategies were studied in a ferruginous rupestrian field with frequent fog. Gas exchange and water potential were measured before dawn and at midday during the dry and rainy seasons, separating foggy from non‐foggy days during the dry season. Results The FWU speed negatively influences CO2 assimilation in the dry season, possibly because of its negative relationship with stomatal conductance, since reduced stomatal aperture impairs carbon entrance. Fog presence increased leaf water potential both in early morning and midday during the dry season. However, during the rainy season, the values of leaf water potential were lower at midday, than during the dry season with fog at midday, which favors leaf gas exchanges. Conclusions FWU interferes negatively, but briefly with CO2 assimilation. Nevertheless, FWU prevents water loss through transpiration and increases the water status of plants in the dry season. That is, FWU results in a compensation between CO2 assimilation and foliar hydration, which, in fact, is beneficial to the plants of this ecosystem.Item How much leaf area do insects eat? : a data set of insect herbivory sampled globally with a standardized protocol.(2021) Mendes, Gisele Medeiros; Silveira, Fernando Augusto de Oliveira e; Oliveira, Carolina Santos de; Cruz, Wesley Francisco Dáttilo da; Guevara, Roger; Ruiz Guerra, Betsabé; Castro, Maria Gabriela Boaventura de; Naidoo, Sershen; Ramdhani, Syd; Phartyal, Shyam S.; Ribeiro, Sérvio Pontes; Pinto, Victor Diniz; Vasconcelos, Heraldo Luis de; Leon, Richard Tito; Pereira, Cássio Cardoso; Barbosa, Bárbara de Carvalho; Carvalho, Gabriel Martins de; Val, Ek del; Buisson, Elise; Arruda, André Jardim; Toth, Jean Baptiste; Roque, Fabio de Oliveira; Souza, Allan Henrique de Almeida; Bolzan, Fabio; Neves, Frederico de Siqueira; Belisário, Juliana Kuchenbecker; Ferreira, Guilherme Ramos Demetrio; Santos, Luziene Seixas dos; Romero, Gustavo Quevedo; Omena, Paula Munhoz de; Silva, Jhonathan de Oliveira; Paolucci, Lucas Navarro; Queiroz, Elenir; Ooi, Mark K.

Despite being a potential driver of plant distribution and performance, herbivory remains largely undocumented. Some early attempts have been made to review, globally, how much leaf area is removed through insect feeding. Kozlov et al., in one of the most comprehensive reviews regarding global patterns of herbivory, have compiled published studies regarding foliar removal and sampled data on global herbivory levels using a standardized protocol. However, in the review by Kozlov et al., only 15 sampling sites, comprising 33 plant species, were evaluated in tropical areas around the globe. In Brazil, which ranks first in terms of plant biodiversity, with a total of 46,097 species, almost half (43%) being endemic, a single data point was sampled, covering only two plant species. In an attempt to increase knowledge regarding herbivory in tropical plant species and to provide the raw data needed to test general hypotheses related to plant–herbivore interactions across large spatial scales, we proposed a joint, collaborative network to evaluate tropical herbivory. This network allowed us to update and expand the data on insect herbivory in tropical and temperate plant species. Our data set, collected with a standardized protocol, covers 45 sampling sites from nine countries and includes leaf herbivory measurements of 57,239 leaves from 209 species of vascular plants belonging to 65 families from tropical and temperate regions. They expand previous data sets by including a total of 32 sampling sites from tropical areas around the globe, comprising 152 species, 146 of them being sampled in Brazil. For temperate areas, it includes 13 sampling sites, comprising 59 species. Thus, when compared to the most recent comprehensive review of insect herbivory (Kozlov et al.), our data set has increased the base of available data for the tropical plants more than 460% (from 33 to 152 species) and the Brazilian sampling was increased 7,300% (from 2 to 146 species). Data on precise levels of herbivory are presented for more than 57,000 leaves worldwide. There are no copyright restrictions.
