Samara water absorption and floatation in sheoaks, Casuarina and Allocasuarina (Casuarinaceae)
Natural History Sciences, 2022 Diaspores (samaras) of the sheoaks, Casuarina and Allocasuarina, have a mesocarp composed of hydrophilic fibres that, in Allocasuarina, rapidly expand on wetting, capturing significant quantities of water. The ecological function of this water capturing
