Epizoochory via the hooves – the European bison (Bison bonasus L.) as a dispersal agent of seeds in an open-forest-mosaic

, 2014
Large herbivores are significant vectors for the long-distance dispersal of seeds in various habitats, both attached to animals (epizoochory) and via gut passage (endozoochory). The majority of studies on epizoochory have examined dispersal in the fur of domesticated ungulates.

Epizoochory in a hedgerow habitat: seasonal variation and selective diaspore adhesion

Ecological Research, 2013
Abstract Epizoochory has been less studied than other seed dispersal mechanisms, such as endozoochory, and generally only a small percentage of plant species show adaptations to this strategy. Nevertheless, epizoochorous seed dispersal can affect an appreciable number of herb species in forests and man‐made ...

Adhesive grass spikelet with mammalian hair in Dominican amber: First fossil evidence of epizoochory

Experientia, 1992
Discovery of a female spikelet of the grass genus Pharus (Gramineae: Bambusoideae: Phareae) in association with mammalian hair in Dominican Republic amber provides the first fossil evidence of epizoochory. Hooked macrohairs on the lemma of the spikelet show that morphological modifications in grasses for dispersal by attachment to the surface of ...

The contact separation force of the fruit burrs from five plant taxa dispersing by epizoochory

Plant Biosystems - An International Journal Dealing with all Aspects of Plant Biology, 2019
AbstractMany plant diaspores dispersing by epizoochory bear special structures, such as burrs with hooks, which are responsible for the mechanical interlocking with animal fur or feathers.

Sequence variation and dispersal ability by epizoochory in Mediterranean Cynoglossum (Boraginaceae): preliminary evidence from ITS and fruit traits.

2010
Cynoglossum comprises ca. 75 biennial to perennial (rarely annual) herbs in the Old and New World, mainly growing in open habitats and especially pasturelands. A major centre of diversity is the Mediterranean, where some 30 species range from Anatolia to the Iberian peninsula and north Africa.
