Ecology and evolution of plant diversity in the endangered campo rupestre: a neglected conservation priority (2015, background): “These species have a unique evolutionary value, due to their adaptation to substrates with high metal concentration and shallow soils (Teixeira and Lemos-Filho 2002; Ginocchio and Baker 2004; Jacobi et al. 2007; Poot and Lambers 2008; Gibson et al. 2010).”
Tropical inselbergs: habitat types, adaptive strategies and diversity patterns (2007, background): “The importance of ironstone outcrops as centres of endemism and diversity has recently been emphasized by Jacobi et al. (2007).”
Changes in species composition, vegetation structure, and life forms along an altitudinal gradient of rupestrian grasslands in south-eastern Brazil (2017, background): “…have o cope with high environmental stress due to nutrient-poor soils, ong dry seasons, high irradiance, strong winds, large temperature ariation, low water availability, and frequent fires (Benites et al., 007; Jacobi et al., 2007; Fernandes, 2016; Figueira et al., 2016; chaefer et al., 2016).”
