Article Synopsis
- Recent studies have shown significant changes in phenological events due to climate change, focusing mainly on temperate plants, while research on tropical species remains limited due to scarce long-term data.
- The study utilized herbarium specimens of four endemic Melastomataceae species from the Brazilian Atlantic Forest, analyzing flowering and fruiting patterns over nearly a century (1920-2018) and their relationship with climate variables.
- Findings revealed varied responses among the species to climate change, including delays or advancements in flowering and fruiting, demonstrating the complex effects of climate change in tropical forests and emphasizing the need for more research in this area.
