Role of plant functional traits in determining vegetation composition of abandoned grazing land in north-eastern Victoria, Australia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008

Postglacial migration supplements climate in determining plant species ranges in Europe [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The influence of dispersal limitation on species ranges remains controversial. Considering the dramatic impacts of the last glaciation in Europe, species might not have tracked climate changes through time and, as a consequence, their present-day ranges ...

Experimental Endozoochory of Cannabis sativa Achenes.

open access: yesMedical cannabis and cannabinoids
The mechanism by which Cannabis sativa dispersed from its center of origin remains an open question. The literature provides many hypotheses, which we review for the first time, but experiments are few. Darwin was interested in zoochory - the transport of plants by animals.

Relationships between Prosopis flexuosa (Fabaceae) and cattle in the Monte desert: Seeds, seedlings and saplings on cattle-use site classes Interacciones entre Prosopis flexuosa (Fabaceae) y el ganado en el desierto de Monte: Semillas, plántulas y renovales en los sitios de uso del ganado

open access: yesRevista Chilena de Historia Natural, 2011
The fate of Prosopis flexuosa seeds dispersed by cattle is dependant on the spatial pattern of dung deposition and foraging movements. We hypothesised that cattle-use site classes explain the response variables related to seed input and fate of seeds ...

Bird‐mediated endozoochory as a potential dispersal mechanism of bony fishes

open access: yesEcography
The dispersal of fish into distant and isolated habitats remains a topic of continuous discussion in the field of fish biogeography. This is particularly relevant due to the perceived limitation of fish movement to what is known as active dispersal.
