Trophic interactions among native and exotic herbivorous mammals in the Ischigualasto Provincial Park (San Juan, Argentina) [PDF]
, 2017 Cada vez es más frecuente que las comunidades de herbívoros estén compuestas por especies nativas y exóticas. Las especies exóticas, con una historia reciente de coexistencia entre ellas y con las especies nativas, presentarían menos estrategias de ...

Redes de frugivoría ave-planta en dos etapas sucesionales de bosque secundario de araucária [PDF]
, 2021 Redes mutualísticas podem apresentar variações em sua estrutura dependendo dos estágios sucessionais da floresta. Nesta pesquisa avaliamos duas redes frugívoras na floresta secundária de araucária, e testamos como o estágio de sucessão pode influenciar ...

Isolated Trees in a Fragmented Tropical Landscape: A View Through the Soil Seed Bank
Biotropica, Volume 57, Issue 5, September 2025.Here, we investigated patterns of plant species diversity, abundance, and composition in the soil seed banks of cattle pastures, under fleshy‐fruited, and nonfleshy‐fruited trees within pastures, and in secondary forest patches at ten study sites in Brazil.

Functional Ecology, Volume 39, Issue 1, Page 238-253, January 2025.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Seed dispersal by frugivores is a crucial step of the life cycle of most plants, influencing plant population and community dynamics. Although very important for most ecosystems, we are just beginning to understand which are the mechanisms driving frugivore‐mediated ...

Functional Ecology, Volume 38, Issue 6, Page 1407-1419, June 2024.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Current global change scenarios demand knowledge on how anthropogenic impacts affect ecosystem functioning through changes in food web structure. Frugivorous mesocarnivores are a key link in trophic cascades because, while their abundance and behaviour are usually ...

La frugivoría por cánidos nativos (Lycalopex spp.) y alóctonos (Canis lupus familiaris) reduce la germinación de semillas de litre (Lithrea caustica) en Chile central [PDF]
, 2017 The consumption of seeds by animals can increase the germination probability because of seeds passage through animal guts. The loss of a native disperser by anthropogenic threats might be compensated by generalist alien seed dispersers.
