Abstract:Question: Is there a decrease in the richness, structural variables and composition similarity of woody Cerrado species with habitat-matrix distance, potentially influenced by soil compaction and propagule dispersal strategies in the pasture matrix? Location: We studied three landscapes of a pasture matrix in areas of the Cerrado biome in southwestern São Paulo, Brazil.
Methods:We sampled 110 plots of 2 m × 2 m in the matrix, stratified in ranges perpendicular to the edge of the habitat, and 10 plots in the fo… Show more
