Population ecology of Paepalanthus polyanthus (Bong.) Kunth: demography and life history of a sand dune monocarpic plant

Abstract: -(Population ecology of Paepalanthus polyanthus (Bong.) Kunth: demography and life history of a sand dune monocarpic plant). Aspects of population dynamics and life history of Paepalanthus polyanthus (Bong.) Kunth, a sand dune monocarpic plant, were evaluated. A five year study was carried out on three permanent plots (5 m x 5 m) in a sand dune slack at Joaquina beach, Santa Catarina State, Brazil. From December 1986 to June 1989, the population decreased due to the death of the post reproductive plants and a … Show more

“…A umidade interfere na germinação, emergência e sobrevivência das plântulas, podendo restringir o recrutamento a anos de maior pluviosidade (Meijden & Waals-Kooi 1979;Boorman & Fuller 1984;Maun 1985;1994;Castellani et al 1995;2001). Quanto à cobertura vegetal, algumas espécies não germinam sob vegetação densa, dependendo de pequenas clareiras para o estabelecimento inicial (Meijden & Waals-Kooi 1979;Boorman & Fuller 1984;Waite 1984;.…”

“…In dry (Mondragón, Durán, Ramírez, & Valverde, 2004;Vega & Montaña, 2004;Volis et al, 2004;Wang, 2005;Nippert et al, 2006 and humid (Zotz, 1998;Castellani, Scherer, & Paula, 2001;Nordbakken, Rydgren, & Okland, 2004;Noel, Porcher, Moret, & Machon, 2005) areas of the world, the birth of herbaceous plants is concentrated in the periods of water availability. In the present study, the birth rates recorded for the four populations during the rainy season, followed the pattern found for several vegetation types in Brazil and in the world.…”

“…In the present study, the birth rates recorded for the four populations during the rainy season, followed the pattern found for several vegetation types in Brazil and in the world. Water shortage is the main factor responsible for the mortality of herbaceous plants in dry (Mondragón et al, 2004;Volis et al, 2004;Nippert et al, 2006;Silva et al, 2008) and humid (Zotz, 1998;Castellani et al, 2001;Nordbakken et al, 2004;Vilà, Bartolomeus, Gimeno, Traveset, & Moragues, 2006) forest areas during dry seasons; however, herbivory (Maron, & Crone, 2006;Gotelli, 2007), intraspecific competition (Suzuki, Kudoh, & Kachi, 2003;Volis et al, 2004) and interspecific competition (Miller & Duncan, 2003;Nordbakken et al, 2004;Thomson, 2005) have been identified as the main causes of mortality during the rainy season.…”

“…Nas baixadas entre dunas, estudos de estratégia de vida de Eriocaulaceae foram realizados apenas para Actinocephalus polyanthus (Bong.) Sano, espécie não-clonal, cuja regeneração populacional depende de eventos de germinação maciça que ocorrem em anos com períodos de umidade favorável no outono (Castellani et al 2001;Scherer & Castellani 2004). Muitas plantas de duna fl orescem e frutifi cam em períodos de alta temperatura e pluviosidade, germinando no outono/inverno (Castellani et al 1999).…”
