A comprehensive assessment of the transcriptome of cork oak (Quercus suber) thr...
Pereira-Leal, José B.; Abreu, Isabel A.; Alabaça, Cláudia S.; Almeida, Maria H.; Almeida, Paulo; Almeida, Tânia; Amorim, Maria I.; Araújo, SusanaBackground: Cork oak (Quercus suber) is one of the rare trees with the ability to produce cork, a material widely used to make wine bottle stoppers, flooring and insulation materials, among many other uses. The molecular mechanisms of cork formation are still poorly understood, in great part due to the difficulty in studying a species with a long life-cycle and for which there is scarce molecular/genomic inform...
Resolving the Azorean knot: a response to Carine & Schaefer (2010)
Triantis, Kostas A.; Hortal, Joaquín; Amorim, Isabel R.; Cardoso, Pedro; Santos, Ana M. C.; Gabriel, Rosalina; Borges, Paulo A. V.Copyright © 2012 Blackwell Publishing Ltd. ; Carine & Schaefer (Journal of Biogeography, 2010, 37, 77–89) suggest that the lack of past climate oscillations in the Azores may have contributed to the low plant endemism in this archipelago compared to that of the Canary Islands, a pattern they term the Azorean diversity enigma. Here we challenge their hypothesis, and discuss how the particular characteristics of...
Os artrópodes auxiliares generalistas associados às bananeiras na ilha Terceira...
Moniz, João; Santos, Ana M. C.; Borges, Paulo A. V.; Mendonça, Enésima"A biodiversidade dos artrópodes associados às fruteiras dos Açores era, até há poucos anos, quase completamente desconhecida, resumindo-se apenas a listagens de pragas e indicação de uma ou outra espécie de auxiliar (e.g., Garcia & Furtado, 1980; Schanderl & Almeida, 1992; Cruz De Boelpaepe & Teixeira, 1990; Soares et al., 1992, 1994, 1996; Costa-Comelles et al., 1994). Com o projecto INTERFRUTA (Lopes et al.,...
Patterns of colonization and species distribution for Azorean arthropods: evolu...
Borges, Paulo A. V.; Gaspar, Clara; Santos, Ana M. C.; Ribeiro, Sérvio P.; Cardoso, Pedro; Triantis, Kostas A.; Amorim, Isabel R.Proceedings of the Symposium "Darwin's Mistake and what we are doing to correct it". Ponta Delgada, 19-22 September, 2009. ; Com base em estudos ecológicos e biogeográficos realizados nos Açores (um arquipélago remoto composto por nove ilhas vulcânicas) durante muitos anos de uma forma continuada, apresentamos um conjunto de questões. O grupo alvo são os artrópodes e o principal habitat é a Laurissilva, a flor...
Macroecological patterns of species distribution, composition and richness of t...
Borges, Paulo A. V.; Cardoso, Pedro; Cunha, Regina Tristão da; Gabriel, Rosalina; Gonçalves, Vitor; Hortal, Joaquín; Martins, António M. de FriasWe investigate the macroecological patterns of the terrestrial biota of the Azorean archipelago, namely the species-range size distributions, the distance decay of similarity, and the island species–area relationship (ISAR). We use the most recent up-to-date checklists to describe the diversity at the island level for nine groups (Lichens, Fungi, Diatoms, Bryophytes, Vascular Plants, Nematodes, Molluscs, Arthro...
Are island and mainland biotas different? Richness and level of generalism in p...
Santos, Ana M. C.; Fontaine, Colin; Quicke, Donald L. J.; Borges, Paulo A. V.; Hortal, JoaquínCopyright © 2011 Th e Authors. Oikos © 2011 Nordic Society Oikos. ; Island communities are exposed to several evolutionary and ecological processes that lead to changes in their diversity and structure compared to mainland biotas. These phenomena have been observed for various taxa but not for parasitoids, a key group in terms of community diversity and functioning. Here we use the parasitoid communities assoc...
Species pool structure determines the level of generalism of island parasitoid ...
Santos, Ana M. C.; Quicke, Donald L. J.; Borges, Paulo A. V.; Hortal, JoaquínCopyright © 2011 Blackwell Publishing Ltd. ; AIM To examine whether island parasitoid faunas are biased towards generalists when compared with the mainland and their species pool, and to evaluate the effects of climate, island characteristics and regional factors on the relative proportions of idiobionts (i.e. generalists) and koinobionts (i.e. specialists) of two parasitic wasp families, Braconidae and Ichneu...
