Abstract:
Dispersion is something essential in the structure of a forest area, as the
distribution, permanence of the populations of plants depends on this process.
Since most of the seeds that are close to the mother plant, have a low success
rate. Thus, the dispersers help to maintain the plants that are commonly used
as herbal medicines by the population, due to the pressure suffered by these
plants that are used both in the population and in animal husbandry. The
objective of this work was to evaluate the plant population with antiparasitic
effect in goat herds by the identification of their dispersers. In the construction
of the systematic review the descriptors "Medicinal plant dispersers" and
"Dispersers of medicinal plants" were used in the databases PUBMED, Scielo
and Google Academic. In addition to the systematic review, a case study about
the dispersers of medicinal plants was carried out in the “Patativa do Assaré”
settlement, by means of semi-structured interviews. The systematic review
identified three articles on the dispersers of medicinal plants with antiparasitic
effect. 13 people were interviewed in the case study, 25 plant species were
cited as having medicinal use, and the antiparasitic effect was mentioned. Thus,
we emphasize the importance of dispersion studies, in order to increase the
knowledge of the population regarding the existing resources in their properties
and to improve already existing drugs.
