Tree structure instead of microclimatic zones determines differences in vascular epiphyte assemblages between forest and pasture
2024, Forest Ecology and ManagementHabitat diversity promotes and structures orchid diversity and orchid-host tree interactions
2022, Flora: Morphology, Distribution, Functional Ecology of PlantsCitation Excerpt :However, at least in southeastern China, the terrestrial species are more diverse than the epiphytes at higher elevations (> 2000 m asl) (Acharya et al., 2011; Zhang et al., 2015). At the landscape scale, the effect of land use change on epiphytic orchids has been evaluated, comparing the diversity and composition of species between conserved and disturbed habitats that include cocoa and shade coffee plantations, and even isolated host trees (e.g., Hietz-Seifert et al., 1996; Flores-Palacios and García-Franco, 2008; Adhikari et al., 2012; Alzate-Q et al., 2019; Morales-Linares et al., 2020). In general, humid montane forests and tropical rainforests characterized by high humidity host greater species richness and a different orchid species composition (both parameters ≥ 50%) than that of disturbed habitats or agroecosystems (Alzate-Q et al., 2019; Morales-Linares et al., 2020).
Assemblage of vascular epiphytes associated to seasonally inundated forest in the Southeastern Mexico: Challenges for its conservation
2021, Global Ecology and ConservationCitation Excerpt :In this research we did not encounter such at relationship although we did not carry out a phorophyte by phorophyte analysis; we studied the mean characteristics of the phorophytes at each site, and not the relationship between each epiphyte-phorophyte individual. This type of relationship can also be reflected in differences in the values of wealth and abundance of the entire assemblage of epiphytes (Benzing, 1990; Hietz-Seifert et al., 1996; Krömer and Gradstein, 2003; Flores-Palacios and García-Franco, 2006; Köster et al., 2009), as occurs among preserved and human-disturbed tintales. It is of concern that in wetland ecosystems such as tintal, richness and abundance of associated species such as vascular epiphytes is drastically modified by human activities, even if to a large extent vegetation structure and composition is not affected.
