Sizenando Nabuco, 100, 21041-250, Rio de Janeiro, RJ, Brazil Correspondence: [email protected] ABSTRACT The family Burseraceae is considered to contain about 700 species comprised in 18 genera. Their resiniferous trees and shrubs usually figures prominently in the ethnobotany of the regions where it occurs, given that such a property has led to the use of species of this family since ancient times for their aromatic properties and many medicinal applications. Although the family is distributed throughout tropical and subtropical regions of the world, the majority of the scientific available information is limited to Asiatic and African genera, such as Commiphora (myrrh), Canarium (elemi incense) and Boswellia (frankincense), or the genus Bursera (linaloe), occurring in Mexico. In the Neotropics, the Burseraceae family is largely represented by the genus Protium , which comprises about 135 species. The present review compiles the published chemical and pharmacological information on the South American genus Protium and updates important data since the last review reported in the scientific literature on Burseraceae species. KEYWORDS - Protium , Burseraceae, Pharmacology, Phytochemistry, Review. INTRODUCTION The family Burseraceae was probably originated in the Eocen Traditional uses of Protium species period, in North America.

The family is monophyletic (Feng 2005, Tukuoka 2008, Wahlert & Ballard 2010 in press), even though phylogenetic relationships within Violaceae are still unclear (Feng 2005, Tukuoka 2008). The family embrace a great diversity of vegetative and floral morphologies. Members are herbs, lianas or trees, with flowers ranging from strongly spurred to unspurred.

We sampled 11 quadrats in three distinct physiographic units within the sarcocaulescent scrub ecoregion: the open scrub, the clustered scrub, and the closed scrub. We found 41 perennial species, which we characterized using 122 morphology-functional characteristics, corresponding to vegetative parts (stem and leaf), reproductive parts (flower and fruit), and functional phases (phenology, pollination, and dispersion).

  • Unifying Knowledge for Sustainability in the Western Hemisphere
    Inventorying and Monitoring of Tropical Dry Forests Tree Diversity in Jalisco, Mexico Using a Geographical Information System Efren Hernandez-Alvarez, Ph. Dr. Candidate, Department of Forest Biometrics, University of Freiburg, Germany Dr. Dieter R. Pelz, Professor and head of Department of Forest Biometrics, University of Freiburg, Germany Dr. Carlos Rodriguez Franco, International Affairs Specialist, USDA-ARS Office of International Research Programs, Beltsville, MD Abstract—Tropical dry forests in Mexico are an outstanding natural resource, due to the large surface area they cover. This ecosystem can be found from Baja California Norte to Chiapas on the eastern coast of the country. On the Gulf of Mexico side it grows from Tamaulipas to Yucatan. This is an ecosystem that is home to a wide diversity of plants, which include 114 tree species. These species lose their leaves for long periods of time during the year. This plant community prospers at altitudes varying from sea level up to 1700 meters, in a wide range of soil conditions. Studies regarding land attributes with full identification of tree species are scarce in Mexico. However, documenting the tree species composition of this ecosystem, and the environment conditions where it develops is good beginning to assess the diversity that can be found there. A geo- graphical information system overlapping 4 layers of information was applied to define ecological units as a basic element that combines a series of homogeneous biotic and environmental factors that define specific growing conditions for several plant species. These ecological units were sampled to document tree species diversity in a land track of 4662 ha, known as “Arroyo Cuenca la Quebrada” located at Tomatlan, Jalisco.
