Macroevolutionary imprints on the assembly of frugivory networks

, 2019
Biological interactions are a key aspect of ecological communities. Currentinteraction network structures are snapshots of dynamic processes ofcommunity assembly. Thus, assessing the temporal dynamics of ecologicalnetworks or the deep time mechanisms related to the assembly of thosenetworks are key to better understand biodiversity changes in broader ...

Frugivory and Seed Dispersal by Carnivorans

Seed dispersal is critical to the ecological performance of sexually reproducing plant species and the communities that they form. The Mammalian order Carnivora provide valuable and effective seed dispersal services but tend to be overlooked in much of the seed dispersal literature.

Trait evolution within frugivory networks

, 2016
Background/Question/Methods Mutualistic frugivory networks are formed by interactions between species which exploit each other for mutual benefit and are crucial components to sustain ecosystem function and services, foster biodiversity and affect community stability.
