My research work was carried out in two INRA mixt unit research “EcoFog” (Ecology of Forests of French Guiana) and “EEF” (Forest Ecology and Ecophysiology) and supported by MEDD ECOFOR ‘Ecosystèmes tropicaux’, PO-FEDER ‘ENERGIRAVI’ and ‘CEBA’ (Labex) research programs. This manuscript was written as a global synthesis containing the state of the art, the main results and a general discussion. I tried to link ecology and population evolution in a global ‘ecological genetics’ approach. Particular theoretical notion and methods were included into ‘green’ and ‘purple’ boxes respectively. A synthetic summary of each main result was integrated in the synthesis through a topic sentence, a short description of the experiment and the main figures. Complete methods and results are described in research articles, and given a part from the global synthesis. For more readability, figures and tables were included in the main text of research articles rather than giving them a part. For more simplicity and to avoid redundancies, I merged the bibliographies of synthesis and research papers into a single bibliography. 4 5 Acknowledgements Je remercie chaleureusement toutes les personnes qui m’ont aidée, accompagnée, soutenue et participé à l’aboutissement de cette thèse.

Scarce information on canopy dimensions re¯ects the dif®- culties associated with measuring crown height, width, depth, and area in tall, humid tropical forests. New ®eld and spaceborne observations provide an opportunity to acquire these measurements, but the accuracy and reliability of the methods are unknown. We used a handheld laser range ®nder to estimate tree crown height, diameter, and depth in a lowland tropical forest in the eastern Amazon, Brazil, for a sampling of 300 trees strati®ed by diameter at breast height (DBH).

E-mail: Abstract: The Rondônia Natural Resources Management Project (PLANAFLORO) was a strategic program developed in partnership between the Brazilian Government and The World Bank in 1992, with the purpose of stimulating the sustainable development and protection of the Amazon in the state of Rondônia. More than a decade after the PLANAFORO program concluded, the aim of the present work is to recover and share the information from the long-abandoned plant collections made during the project’s ecological-economic zoning phase. Most of the material analyzed was sterile, but the fertile voucher specimens recovered are listed here. The material examined represents 378 species in 234 genera and 76 families of angiosperms. Some 8 genera, 68 species, 3 subspecies and 1 variety are new records for Rondônia State. It is our intention that this information will stimulate future studies and contribute to a better understanding and more effective conservation of the plant diversity in the southwestern Amazon of Brazil. Introduction The PLANAFLORO Project funded botanical expeditions In early 1990, Brazilian Amazon was facing remarkably in different areas of the state to inventory arboreal plants high rates of forest conversion (Laurance et al.

Papilionoideae, the best-studied subfamily, have undergone a Whole Genome Duplication (WGD) around 59 million years ago. Recent study found varying WGD ages in subfamilies Mimosoideae and Caesalpinioideae and proposed multiple occurrences of WGD across the family based on gene duplication patterns. Despite that, the genome evolution of legume ancestor into modern legumes after the WGD is not well-understood. We aimed to study genome evolution at the subfamily level using gene-based linkage maps for Acacia auriculiformis and A. mangium (Mimosoideae) and we discovered evidence for a WGD event in Acacia. In additional to synonymous substitution rate (Ks) analysis, we used ancestral karyotype prediction to further corroborate this WGD and elucidate underlying mechanisms of karyotype evolution in Fabaceae.
