mesophyte

Amaranthus is a dicotyledonous, herbaceous mesophyte that utilizes specialized [C.sub.4] carbon-fixation pathway for photosynthesis in which the first photosynthesis product is a four carbon-compound (National Research Council, 1984; Stallknecht and SchulzSchaeffer, 1993; Myers, 1998; Wang et al., 1999).

(Bignoniaceae) (also known as Pyrostegia ignea and Bignonia venusta) is a liana creeper that easily adapts to hygrophyte and mesophyte environments.

This was also a mesophyte association group including 12 sampling spots (S1, S11, S22, S26, S27, S34, S35, S36, S39, S40, S45, S47).

According to Reitz (1977), it is an heliophytic species, a selective hydrophyte to mesophyte, found quite frequently in Araucaria Pine Forests, especially in the humid soil of the moist forest in isolated patches of trees, and in more open areas of the secondary forests.

cit., p.111) that this term is not equivalent to mesophyte or xerophyte but is useful for the reconstruction of adaptations to a moist regime.

(14) Since water storage increases within a swamp landscape over the course of several thousand years, there appears a dense net of micro-lakes and, then, the micro-streams alternating the drained micro-landscapes with a plant-soil cover, i.e., significant parts of the swamp landscapes, are reduced being replaced by riparian mesophyte areas.

Only on the flood plains of recent rivers and in the oases in the peripheral regions is there a rich mesophyte tree cover.
