“…In our study, very high contents of organic matter (OM) and carbon (C) were found in the nearly flat microsite and high contents were found in the sloped microsite; both sites were found to be rich in total nitrogen (Nt). Slope has been observed to play an important role in nutrient accumulation (Ramos et al, 2015); flat terrain often presents the best conditions, mainly due to less water drainage carrying away nutrient-rich soil particles.…”

As a contribution to ex-situ conservation and production recovery of the valuable timber tree species Dalbergia palo-escrito Rzed. & Guridi-Gómez, enrichment planting was undertaken in a coffee plantation at 830 m above sea level in the east of the State of Hidalgo, Mexico. The purpose of this study was to assess the growth and health status of this species in order to put forward forest management recommendations. Average growth at 11 years of age (n = 56) was as follows: normal diameter, 13.2 ± 2.9 cm; total height, 10.9 ± 1.9 m. These values represent a mean annual increase of 1.2 cm/year in diameter and 1.0 m/year in height. Significant statistical differences in diameter growth (P = 0.0001) and height growth (P = 0.003) were observed as a function of crown position; growth, both in diameter and height, was highest in trees with emergent crowns in comparison with poorly lit trees. An association was also found concerning infestation by Struthanthus sp. mistletoe: differences in diameter growth (P = 0.002) were found between trees with mild infestation in comparison with healthy trees, which showed more growth. On the other hand, no height growth differences were detected (P = 0.102). Diameter and height growth were comparable to other commercially valuable species of fine Dalbergia timber on the international market, such as Dalbergia sissoo in India and Dalbergia retusa in mixed plantations in Costa Rica. The study suggests pruning out the mistletoe as a control strategy is a recommended forest management practice, as well as releasing poorly illuminated trees from competition and preserving the shade canopy of other native species.

“…Estos estudios permiten conocer no solo la diversidad florística, sino también, la distribución, COMPOSICIÓN FLORÍSTICA Y SU ESTADO DE CONSERVACION EN CAJATAMBO / LIMA / PERÚ Agosto -Diciembre 2020 __________________________________________________________________________________________ los endemismos y las especies amenazadas. Sin embargo, a pesar de los estudios florísticos y de la caracterización de la vegetación realizados y documentados en guías de campo, en algunas regiones del país con ecosistemas de montañas (mayor a los 3 000 -4 000 msnm) en los Andes Peruanos, aún no existe información (Kahn et al, 2016) o el grado de conocimiento es todavía limitado (Ramos et al, 2015). Para Cajatambo se cuenta solo con estudios etnobotánicos, como los de Quinteros (2009) sobre los conocimientos tradicionales de la flora, en donde se da a conocer un total de 200 especies para el lugar, y el de Benavides (2019) sobre usos tradicionales de la diversidad vegetal.…”

ResumenSe estudiaron la composición florística y el estado de conservación de las plantas amenazadas en Cajatambo / Lima / Perú. Las plantas fueron colectadas en alturas que oscilaron entre los 2 802 y 4 534 msnm en nueve formaciones vegetales. Se reportan 64 familias, 211 géneros y 355 especies, siendo Asteraceae, Poaceae, Fabaceae, Caryophyllaceae, Lamiaceae y Solanaceae las familias mejor representadas, y los géneros con mayor número de especies Senecio, Baccharis, Calceolaria, Oxalis y Solanum. Se encontraron 31 especies en alguna categoría de amenaza. Algunas especies están presentes sólo en un lugar como en Ocopata, Iscu-Viconga, Huaylashtoclanca y en el cerro San Cristóbal. Las formaciones vegetales con mayor presencia de especies amenazadas fueron: matorral, campo agrícola, pajonal y bosque de Polylepis.

“…Vegetation and floristic composition, as the structural basis of the community, are repeated in different areas with similar physical and biological contexts. In spite of this, no two spaces are occupied by identical plant communities, since vegetation type results in different communities of birds, arthropods, microorganisms and other organisms (Matteucci & Colma, 1982;Ramos, Castro & Sánchez, 2015). Therefore, monitoring the dynamics of succession in abandoned plots allows us to obtain information that can be used to design sustainable systems.…”
