Se estudiaron problemas de los habitantes del área protegida denominada "La Pera" en la salud de sus gallinas domésticas. Se registraron explicaciones locales sobre padecimientos importantes y se hizo un estudio clínico preliminar que mostró la presencia de bacterias de las familias Microccocaceae, Enterobacteraceae y Sthaphylococcaceae. Se encontraron protozoarios de la familia Eimeridae y nemátodos de Trichuridae, Heterakidae, Eimeridae, Strongylidae, Trichostrongylidae y Ascaridae.Varios géneros de estos organismos pueden afectar la salud humana. Los habitantes reconocen que tales problemas sanitarios son severos pero no saben cómo emprender un enfoque preventivo, lo cual contrasta con la escasa intervención gubernamental. Así, debe fortalecerse el conocimiento local y modificarse las políticas públicas sobre las áreas naturales protegidas de Chiapas para fortalecer integradamente la salud animal y humana.
The Frailesca region (Chiapas, Mexico) presents a lack of forest studies and its environmental contribution. This chapter displays a first case study with preliminary research information regarding the identification of main forest trees and rural villages with best potential for biomass production and carbon storage management. Twenty two plots of 500 m 2 were selected in 11 villages of the region, in order to identify the main and dominant forest trees species and then to estimate the biomass production and carbon storage in pine (Pinus maximinoi), oak (Quercus robur), holm oak (Quercus rugosa) and Mexican weeping pine (Pinus patula) species. This study shows that the largest accumulation of both biomass and carbon occurred in the pine forests and the lowest in the oak forests. Pine trees showed carbon storage of 516.75 Mg ha −1
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
