Fruit traits of pioneer trees structure seed dispersal across distances on tropical deforested landscapes: Implications for restoration
(2020-01-01)
Pioneer trees with fleshy fruits are typically planted in restoration projects to attract frugivores as a mean to increase dispersal and accelerate forest regeneration. However, differences in fruit traits of pioneer trees ...
Exploratory behavior, but not aggressiveness, is correlated with breeding dispersal propensity in the highly philopatric thorn-tailed rayadito
(Wiley, 2020)
Studies on the relationship between behavioral traits and dispersal are necessary to
understand the evolution of dispersal syndromes. Empirical studies have mainly
focused on natal dispersal, even though behavioral ...
Seed germination traits can contribute better to plant community ecology
(2016-05-01)
Analyses of functional traits have become fundamental tools for understanding patterns and processes in plant community ecology. In this context, regenerative seed traits play an important, yet overlooked, role because ...
Relationship of samara size with dispersal of Gallesia integrifolia (Phytolaccacea) in a tropical dry forestRelación del tamaño de la sámara con la dispersión de Gallesia integrifolia (Phytolaccacea) en un bosque seco tropical

Do regeneration traits vary according to vegetation structure? A case study for savannas
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2020-09-13)
Aim Regeneration traits are crucial for understanding patterns and processes in plant communities. However, regeneration traits are not reported much in community ecology, preventing a better assessment of trait-based ...
A research agenda for seed-trait functional ecology
(2019-03-01)
Trait-based approaches have improved our understanding of plant evolution, community assembly and ecosystem functioning. A major challenge for the upcoming decades is to understand the functions and evolution of early ...
Plant dispersal strategies of high tropical alpine communities across the Andes
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2020-09)
Dispersal is a key ecological process that influences plant community assembly. Therefore, understanding whether dispersal strategies are associated with climate is of utmost importance, particularly in areas greatly exposed ...
Intraspecific variation in biocontrol traits in Mastrus ridens (Hymenoptera: Ichneumonidae) laboratory populations
(Springer Science and Business Media B.V., 2021)
© 2021, International Organization for Biological Control (IOBC).Breeding natural enemies to generate populations with improved characteristics is an attractive idea, particularly nowadays with the increase in use of ...
