Can the traditional use of native plant species in rural communities in the Brazilian semi-arid region be affected by global warming
Extreme climate change events are capable of modifying the physiognomy of landscapes, impacting millions of people around the world. Consequently, the traditional knowledge of people residing in these regions about local natural resources may also be affected. To identify how the traditional use of native plant species can be influenced by a change in the availability of these species in a rural community in a semi-arid region, in a scenario of c…
Knowledge and use of Cactaceae in rural communities in the semi-arid region of Paraíba, northeastern Brazil
Background: Cactaceae species are physiologically adapted to regions with arid and semi-arid climates, in which they are available and often used by traditional communities. This study aimed to analyze how ethnobotanical knowledge is influenced by socioeconomic factors such as age and gender in a semi-arid region of Paraíba, Brazil.Methods: This study was conducted in rural communities in the semi-arid region of Paraíba, northeastern Brazil. The …
Local botanical knowledge of cacti in the semi-arid region of Paraíba, northeastern Brazil
Background: The semi-arid region of Brazil has different physiognomies characterized by caatinga vegetation, represented by several botanical families, such as the Cactaceae, which stands out economically due to its diverse utilities.This study was conducted in the rural community of Capivara, from 2012 to 2015.This community is located in the municipality of Solânea, in the 'Agreste' Mesoregion and 'Curimataú Oriental' Microregion, in the state …
Local Botanical Knowledge about Sideroxylon obtusifolium (Roem. & Schult.) T.D.Penn. in Rural Communities in the Semi-Arid Region of Brazil
Sideroxylon obtusifolium (Roem. & Schult.) T.D.Penn. is a species widely used, for several purposes, by traditional populations from the semi-arid region of Brazil. This study records the knowledge and use attributed to this species by residents from two regions: the Curimataú (Coelho and Capivara communities) and the Cariri (São Francisco and Santa Rita communities) located in the semi-arid region of Paraíba State, Northeast Brazil. We interview…
Ecological Apparency Hypothesis and Plant Utility in the Semiarid Region of Brazil
The ecological apparency hypothesis seeks to understand the dynamics of use that a particular species has through its availability in vegetation areas. According to this hypothesis, apparent plants are the most collected and used by humans. This hypothesis was tested in the rural community of Santa Rita, municipality of Congo, in Cariri microregion (Paraíba state, Northeast Brazil). We calculated the use value (UV) for each species. For the phyto…
Ecological Apparency Hypothesis and Availability of Useful Plants
The present study tested the ecological apparency hypothesis in a Brazilian rural community. It used the use value to test the information gained through three types of calculations (UVchange, UVgeneral, UVpotential). A vegetation inventory was performed in two areas near Capivara, Paraíba, Brazil, and 112 informants were interviewed. For the hypothesis test, the Spearman correlation coefficient was used to correlate the phytosociological (vegeta…
Use and knowledge of Cactaceae in Northeastern Brazil
Background This study aimed to record the use, and knowledge that residents from São Francisco community (Paraiba, Brazil) have regarding the Cactaceae. Methods Semi-structured interviews were carried out with 118 informants; 50 men and 68 women. The cacti cited in this study were organised into use categories and use values were calculated. Differences in the values applied to species and use categories by men and women were compared via a G tes…
