1. Seed dispersal is of high applied relevance as it governs colonization processes in rare species and during plant invasions. Seed tracking is a powerful approach to analysing dispersal processes ...

Analyzing population dynamics in changing habitats is a prerequisite for population dynamics forecasting. The recent development of metapopulation modeling allows the estimation of dispersal kernels ...

The apple might not fall far from the tree, but new research shows that how it falls might be what is most important in determining tree distribution across a forest. This study of the seed dispersal ...

Three species of non-photosynthetic plants rely mainly on camel crickets to disperse their seeds, according to new research from Project Associate Professor Suetsugu Kenji (Kobe University Graduate ...

CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Nov. 28, 2006 -- The apple might not fall far from the tree, but new research shows that how it falls might be what is most important in determining tree distribution across a forest ...

The sandbox tree launches seeds at 150 mph by exploding its ripe fruits. This explosive dispersal helps seeds escape crowded forest competition. The tree grows in tropical rainforests from Mexico to ...
