A new rain-operated seed dispersal mechanism in Bertolonia mosenii (Melastomataceae), a Neotropical rainforest herb
(2002-03-19)
Although widespread among fungi, lichens, liverworts, and mosses, seed dispersal mechanisms operated by rain are unusual among flowering plants. Generally speaking, two mechanisms are involved in seed dispersal by rains: ...
Interhabitat variation in diplochory: Seed dispersal effectiveness by birds and ants differs between tropical forest and savanna
(Elsevier B.V., 2019-06-01)
Diversified assemblages of frugivores interact with fruits/seeds in tropical environments. Species within assemblages vary largely in body size, abundance, seed treatment and places of seed deposition, with possible delayed ...
A nonlocal inhomogeneous dispersal process
(ACADEMIC PRESS INC ELSEVIER SCIENCE, 2007)
This article in devoted to the study of the nonlocal dispersal equation
Timing of seed dispersal and seed dormancy in Brazilian savanna: Two solutions to face seasonality
(2018-05-11)
Background and Aims The relationship between fruiting phenology and seed dispersal syndrome is widely recognized; however, the interaction of dormancy classes and plant life-history traits in relation to fruiting phenology ...
Birds and ants provide complementary seed dispersal in a neotropical savanna

Persistence of the effect of frugivore identity on post-dispersal seed fate: consequences for the assessment of functional redundancy
(2017-05-01)
Large frugivores play an important role as seed dispersers and their extinction may affect plant regeneration. The consequences of such extinctions depend on the likelihood of other species being functionally redundant and ...
Biological and environmental effects on fine-scale seed dispersal of an invasive tree in a secondary subtropical forest
(Springer, 2018-02)
Dispersal abilities of invading species emerge from the interaction between the species and some features of the target community. Ligustrum lucidum is a tree species invading different ecosystems. Major spatial patterns ...
