Allopatric or sympatric speciation influence the degree to which closely related species coexist in different manners, altering the patterns of phylogenetic structure and turnover among and between communities. The objective of this study was to examine whether phylogenetic community structure...

Gastauer, M, Meira-Neto, JAA. 2013. Community dynamics in a species-rich patch of old-growth forest in a global changing scenario Acta Botanica Brasilica 27(2): 270-285.

Ecological theory predicts that, in mature ecosystems, species richness, the number of individuals and the biomass of individuals will remain in a relatively stable state of equilibrium. The aim of this study was to test that theory. In 2001 and 2010, we conducted censuses of all trees with a...
Gastauer, M. Meira-Neto, J.A.A. 2014. Interactions, Environmental Sorting and Chance: Phylostructure of a Tropical Forest Assembly. Folia Geobotanica, DOI 10.1007/s12224-013-9181-1

Density dependence, environmental sorting and chance have been discussed for the purpose of understanding, predicting and explaining the species richness, composition and structural parameters of living communities. Different ecological mechanisms occur individually in an overlapping manner, so the...
