    • A biogeographical evaluation of high-elevation myxomycete assemblages in the northern Neotropics 

      Rojas Alvarado, Carlos Alonso; Stephenson, Steven L.; Valverde González, Randall; Estrada Torres, Arturo (2011-08)
      This study represented an effort to apply some of the relatively well-known biogeographical and macroecological models to the observed structure of myxomycete assemblages, with emphasis on the northern Neotropical region. ...

    • A study case of two myxomycete surveys in a fir forest of central Mexico 

      Salazar Hernández, Berlia Beneric; Valverde González, Randall; Rojas Alvarado, Carlos Alonso (2021-07-13)
      Field collections and laboratory isolation in moist chamber cultures are two complementary techniques widely used to record sporocarps of myxomycetes. The species recorded using either method tend to be different due to ...

    • Ecological patterns of Costa Rican myxomycetes 

      Rojas Alvarado, Carlos Alonso; Valverde González, Randall; Stephenson, Steven L.; Vargas, María Julia (2009-10)
      Ecological patterns of tropical myxomycetes have been subjected to study only during the last decade. An exhaustive analysis of an extensive dataset for a single tropical country is lacking. For this reason, the present ...

    • Ecological patterns of lignicolous myxomycetes from two different forest types in Costa Rica 

      Rojas Alvarado, Carlos Alonso; Valverde González, Randall (2015-04-21)
      Lignicolous myxomycetes comprise an ecological guild that has been extensively studied in temperate areas. However, there is still incomplete information about the group for the tropics and thus, with the objective to ...

    • Generation of myxomycete data from three discrete experiments using moist chamber cultures in a Neotropical forest 

      Rojas Alavarado, Carlos Alonso; Rollins, Adam W.; Valverde González, Randall (2021-11-23)
      The moist chamber technique is widely used in ecological research on myxomycetes. However, limited assessments on the usefulness of the technique have been carried out using empirical data. In the present study, three ...

    • Myxomycete ecology in urban areas: rapid assessment from two cities 

      Rincón Marín, Carolina; García Chaves, María Carolina; Valverde González, Randall; Rojas Alvarado, Carlos Alonso (2021-02-25)
      Urban ecology has been an understudied topic in myxomycete research. For that reason, the present investigation aimed to generate data related to myxomycetes in urban areas of the Neotropical region. With an approach of ...

    • Myxomycetes within ecotones in temperate and tropical forests 

      Rojas Alvarado, Carlos Alonso; Valverde González, Randall; Somerville, Stephanie; Rollins, Adam W.; Stephenson, Steven L. (2021)
      Ecotones are interesting portions of forests where microorganisms can be studied for monitoring and diversity purposes. Given the faster life cycle of these organisms, their study in such a context is important to develop ...

    • New records of myxomycetes from high-elevation areas of Mexico and Guatemala 

      Rojas Alvarado, Carlos Alonso; Stephenson, Steven L.; Estrada Torres, Arturo; Valverde González, Randall; Morales Esquivel, Osberth (2010-04)
      Surveys of four high-elevation study areas in central Mexico and northwestern Guatemala were carried out to obtain baseline information on the species of myxomycetes present. All study areas were sampled in 2006 and 2007. ...

    • Rapid assessment of myxomycetes in Isla Calero and Isla Brava, Costa Rica 

      Rojas Alavarado, Carlos Alonso; Valverde González, Randall (2022-03-02)
      The geography of the northeasternmost section of Costa Rica corresponds to river islands sparsely populated and highly protected for biological conservation. Myxomycetes had not been studied in that part of such Central ...

    • Results of myxomycete experiments could be affected by temperature in “standard” laboratory conditions 

      Rojas Alvarado, Carlos Alonso; Valverde González, Randall (2023-02-20)
      Moist chamber cultures are valuable for myxomycete research and can be used for the analysis of ecological patterns with implications in ecosystem conservation programs. However, to make comparisons between datasets ...

    • What can myxomycetes tell us about floricolous microbial systems? 

      Rojas Alvarado, Carlos Alonso; Valverde González, Randall; Rollins, Adam W.; Murillo Roos, Mariana (2017-02)
      The study described herein was conducted in Costa Rica in an effort to generate baseline data on the association between tropical inflorescences and a group of microorganisms known as myxomycetes. The assemblage structure ...
