Tree species sprouting from root buds in a semideciduous forest affected by fires

Tree species which sprouted from root buds were identified in a 3.6ha area of a Semideciduous Seasonal Forest fragment in Campinas, Sao Paulo State (22° 55’ S and 47° 05’ W), affected by several fires. Connection between sprouts and main trunk root system was confirmed by digging and root exposure. Twenty seven tree species with root buds were identified, with a high proportion of Leguminosae species. The majority of identified species (45%) were characteristic of initial secondary succession stages. Distances between sprouts and main trunks varied from 0.6m (Guettarda viburnioides Cham. and Schltdl- Rubiaceae.) to 14 .0m (Colubrina glandulosa PerkinsRhamnaceae). These results lead d iscussions about natural and/or human-made disturbances influence on the sprouting from root buds, and its possible c onsequences in forest dynamics, besides the spatial occupation, and structure of populations of tree species which present their potential capacity of regeneration.
