Seasonally Dry Tropical Forests (SDTFs) located on limestone outcrops are vulnerable to degradation caused by timber logging and limestone extraction for cement production. Some of these forests represent the last remnants of native vegetation cover, functioning as isolated islands. Ceiba pubiflora (Malvaceae) is a tree frequently found on limestone outcrops in the central region of Brazil.

Microplants of were produced through indirect organogenesis, and the interaction of plant growth regulators (PGRs) (TDZ-thidiazuron and NAA-α-naphthalene acetic acid), juvenile tissues (cotyledon and hypocotyl) and different types of polylactic acid (PLA) microvessels on plant production were evaluated. Cotyledon-derived callus induction increased by 30-60% in all tested combinations of TDZ and NAA concentrations compared the absence of PGRs. Hypocotyl-derived callus induction was improved in most tested combinations of TDZ and NAA concentrations.

The endemic tree species Calyptranthes clusiifolia (Myrtaceae) plays a relevant ecological role in the forest fragments where it has a common occurrence. In this study, we reported the development of microsatellite markers for C. clusiifolia what will allow a better understanding of the relationship between the forest fragmentation process and the genetic structure and diversity of tree populations.

Background: We developed simple sequence repeats (SSR) for Eremanthus erythropappus (DC.) MacLeish, an endangered tree species endemic to the Brazilian Savanna and Atlantic Forest biomes, and tested their transferability to two closely related Eremanthus species.

Results: Using a genomic library enriched with tandem repeat motifs, we identified 16 primer pairs, and characterized them in two populations.

Adaptation to new environments can start from new mutations or from standing variation already present in natural populations. Whether admixture constrains or facilitates adaptation from standing variation is largely unknown, especially in ecological keystone or foundation species. We examined patterns of neutral and adaptive population divergence in Populus tremula L.
