Climate Predicts Tree Dispersal Strategies Across Brazil's Ecosystems

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 35, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim We investigate the distribution of dispersal modes—endozoochory (via animal ingestion), synzoochory (via animal seed accumulation) and anemochory (via wind)—and seed mass of woody plants across Brazilian ecosystems, testing whether their relative abundance in local plant communities could be predicted by climate, edaphic factors and ...
