“…The vegetation in the studied areas differs in terms of the most frequent species, characterizing a succession process. Thus, in the areas of early secondary forest, the most frequent tree species are members of Anacardiaceae, Araliaceae, Chrysobalanaceae and Myrtaceae; in late secondary forest are more commonly found species of Melastomataceae and Fabaceae, while in the mature forest also predominate species of Fabaceae and Melastomataceae, together with species of Lecythidaceae, Anacardiaceae, and Moraceae (Braga et al 2021). AMF are successful inoculants of species of the Myrtaceae family (Lattuada et al 2019), and there are also reports of benefits promoted by AMF in species of Moraceae (Mazzoni-Viveiros & Trufem 2004), in addition to species of Fabaceae, family known to be highly mycotrophic (Ghosh & Dutta 2016).…”

“…The PEDI has an area of approximately 1,158 ha and is formed from remnants of the Atlantic Rainforest, characterized as Lowland Dense Ombrophilous Forest (Lima et al 2018), in a stage of secondary succession, resulting from Succession stages and soil attributes influence the structure of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi communities in the Atlantic Forest logging and natural tree death (Rodrigues & Silva 2014). The most common tree families are Fabaceae, Lecythidaceae, Anacardiaceae, Melastomataceae and Moraceae (Braga et al 2021).…”

The objective of this study was to determine the structure, diversity, composition and drivers of AMF communities in succession areas of Atlantic Forest. Soil and root samples were collected in three natural ecosystems (mature rainforests, early and late secondary forests) with three areas on each ecosystem. In total, 38 AMF taxa were identified in field samples and three more in trap cultures with a greater richness of Acaulospora and Glomus. Based on a richness estimator, 70% of the AMF species were identified. Highest rates of root colonization and number of glomerospores were recorded in the early secondary forest. AMF species diversity differed between early and late forests. The main drivers of AMF distribution were coarse and fine sand, silt, Al, P, Na, pH and base saturation. The greatest number of exclusive species was recorded in the mature rainforests. The distribution of AMF communities was influenced by different successional stages and some soil attributes.

Urban foraging, i.e., the gathering of wild edible plants, plays a key role in nature connection within cities. Its integration in planning could contribute to the conservation of urban biodiversity. However, we have little understanding of the interactions between the motivations for and barriers to foraging, and the role of legislation, especially in biodiversity hotspots. Through an online questionnaire and policy review, we explored the practice of urban foraging in Recife, Brazil, across social, spatial and regulatory dimensions. We found that most non-foragers would forage if pollution risks were addressed and knowledge was improved. Foragers collected up to 31 species, none of which are threatened. By integrating the social, spatial and regulatory dimensions of the practice, we highlighted the importance of the local context for targeting foraging incentives. In all, regulation had little impact on where the practice is carried out, and foraging seemed to have little negative impact on biodiversity, as no threatened species were collected and foragers were conscious of their impact. This knowledge can contribute to better integrate the practice of foraging within legislation and develop forager-led greenspace planning and management. In biodiversity hotspots threatened by urban expansion, foraging can contribute to slowing down the biodiversity crisis and improve urban residents’ contact with biodiversity.
