Resumo: In the Midwest region of Brazil, forest fragments from the Atlantic Forest biome are disconnected from the landscape and with low resilience. Searching for potential restoration techniques, this study aimed to evaluate the interactions of artificial perches with some nucleation techniques, in order to confirm the hypothesis that the combination of these techniques increases the diversity of seeds and regenerants in the area. The experimental design was randomized in blocks, with five treatments and three replications. The restoration treatments included (1) control perches only; (2) perches with propagule collectors; (3) perches with brushwood transposition; (4) perches with food supply; and (5) perches with brushwood transposition and food supply. The experiment was conducted in a degraded area, which was previously colonized by pasture, in the surroundings of a forest remnant (reference ecosystem). After 365 days, the regenerants were identified (number of species and individuals). In the diversity of regenerants there was a significant increase with the interaction of more than one nucleation technique, highlighting the efficiency of the combination of artificial perches with collectors (T2) and brushwood transposition with food supply (T5). Based on the results it can be stated that the use of artificial perches combined with other nucleation techniques favors the recruitment of seedlings of zoochoric species and increases the seed bank through bird foraging. We believe that this technique is economically viable and has the potential for being used in restoration projects.

En busca de posibles técnicas de restauración, este estudio tuvo como objetivo evaluar las interacciones de las perchas artificiales con algunas técnicas de nucleación, con el fin de confirmar la hipótesis de que la combinación de estas técnicas aumenta la diversidad de semillas y regenerantes en el área. El diseño experimental fue en bloques al azar, con cinco tratamientos y  repeticiones. Los tratamientos de restauración incluyeron (1) solo perchas de control; (2) perchas con recolectores de propágulos; (3) perchas con transposición de ramas; (4) perchas con apoyo alimentario; y (5) perchas con transposición de ramas y apoyo alimentario. El experimento se llevó a cabo en un área degradada, previamente colonizada por pastizales, cerca de un remanente de bosque (ecossistema de referencia). Después de 365 días, se identificaron los regenerantes (numero de especies e individuos). En la diversidad de regenerantes hubo un aumento significativo con la interacción de más de una técnica de nucleación, destacando la eficiencia de combinar perchas artificiales con colectores (T2) y transposición de ramas con apoyo alimentario (T5). Con base en los resultados, se puede decir que el uso de perchas artificiales combinadas con otras técnicas de nucleación favorece el reclutamiento de plántulas de especies zoochóricas y aumenta el banco de semillas a través del forrajeo de las aves. Se cree que esta técnica es económicamente viable y tiene el potencial de ser utilizada en proyectos de restauración.Na região Centro-Oeste do Brasil, os fragmentos florestais do bioma Mata Atlântica estão desconectados na paisagem e com baixa resiliência. Buscando técnicas potenciais para restauração, este estudo teve como objetivo avaliar as interações de poleiros artificiais com algumas técnicas de nucleação, com o objetivo de confirmar a hipótese de que a combinação dessas técnicas aumenta a diversidade de sementes e regenerantes na área. O delineamento experimental foi em blocos casualizados, com cinco tratamentos e três repetições. Os tratamentos de restauração incluíram (1) somente poleiros de controle; (2) poleiros com coletores de propágulos; (3) poleiros com transposição de galharia; (4) poleiros com suprimento de alimentos; e (5) poleiros com transposição de galharia e suprimento de alimentos. O experimento foi realizado em uma área degradada, anteriormente colonizada por pastagem, nos arredores de um remanescente florestal (ecossistema de referência). Após 365 dias, os regenerantes foram identificados (número de espécies e indivíduos). Na diversidade de regenerantes houve um aumento significativo com a interação de mais de uma técnica de nucleação, destacando a eficiência da combinação de poleiros artificiais com coletores (T2) e transposição de galharias com suprimento de alimentos (T5). Com base nos resultados, pode-se afirmar que o uso de poleiros artificiais combinados com outras técnicas de nucleação favorece o recrutamento de mudas de espécies zoocóricas e aumenta o banco de sementes através do forrageamento de pássaros. Acredita-se que essa técnica é economicamente viável e tem potencial para ser usada em projetos de restauração.Research, Society and Development2020-07-08info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/543810.33448/rsd-v9i8.5438Research, Society and Development; Vol. 9 No. 8; e360985438Research, Society and Development; Vol. 9 Núm. 8; e360985438Research, Society and Development; v. 9 n. 8; e3609854382525-3409reponame:Research, Society and Developmentinstname:Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)instacron:UNIFEIenghttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/5438/4900Copyright (c) 2020 Shaline Séfara Lopes Fernandes, Thalita Souza Santos Abreu, Julio Cesar Pereira Lobtchenko, Zefa Valdivina Pereirainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessAbreu, Thalita Souza SantosFernandes, Shaline Séfara LopesLobtchenko, Julio Cesar PereiraPereira, Zefa Valdivina2020-08-20T18:00:17Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/5438Revistahttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/indexPUBhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/oairsd.articles@gmail.com2525-34092525-3409opendoar:2024-01-17T09:28:57.131111Research, Society and Development - Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)false
