Successional Growth Dynamics of Woody Saplings in Tropical Dry Forest Understory
The factors that drive sapling growth in tropical dry forest succession remain unclear. Growth rates are higher in the early stages of succession and then decrease. Light and not water seems to be the main factor limiting sapling growth along succession. The successional guild of species and the taxonomic identity as a Leguminosae were the main factors

Resurrecting plant–animal interactions in the Caribbean can benefit large‐fruited plants
Many plants benefit from seed dispersal by frugivorous animals. This mutualistic interaction depends largely on interaction‐relevant matching of functional traits (i.e. fruit size of plants and gape size of frugivores). With declines in large‐bodied animal populations, it is likely that fruit–frugivore interactions have eroded, leading to the loss of ...
