Línea base fenológica de algunas de las especies presentes en el tropicario del Jardín Botánico Bogotá y revisión taxonómica para especies no determinadas

Abstract

The phenology baseline was established and the taxonomic identification of some of the species present in the Tropicarium of the Botanical Garden of Bogotá was carried out. of the species present in the Tropicarium of the Botanical Garden of Bogota. Phenological phenological observations were carried out in 27 families and 78 plant species, determining three phenophases: flower bud, flowering and fruiting. phenophases: flower bud, flowering and fruiting. These observations were made were made every two weeks for a period of five months using two methods: one qualitative and the other quantitative, which were applied quantitative method, which were applied depending on the number of individuals per species. The information collected was recorded in a data collection form. Subsequently, it was observed if there is synchrony of phenological behavior between the species present in the Tropicarium and the species present in the species present in the Tropicarium and those collected in the Colombian National Herbarium, in order to analyze if there are phenological to analyze if there are phenological differences between the species conserved ex situ and those conserved in situ. those preserved in situ. Taxonomic identification was carried out on 9 species, with the help of specialized keys, with the collection of specialized keys, with the collection of samples from the Colombian National Herbarium, and with the advice of biologist Javier Garza with the advice of biologist Javier Garzón Venegas. Finally, this research aims to increase knowledge on the development and behavior of the species found in the the development and behavior of the species found in the Tropicarium of the Botanical Garden of Bogota and contribute to the Bogotá and contribute to the subsequent development of a floral calendar.
