MASTING IN ANIMAL-DISPERSED PINES FACILITATES SEED DISPERSAL
Ecology, 2002Masting increases the efficiency of wind pollination and satiates seed predators, but there is little evidence that masting facilitates seed dispersal by animals. Masting in pines was studied over three field seasons by simulating seed crops in synchrony (mast years, autumn 1998 and 1999) or out of synchrony (non-mast year, autumn 2000) with the local ...

Diapause by seed predators and parasitoids in Chionochloa mast seeding communities
2008Chionochloa, a genus of snow tussock grasses native to New Zealand, exhibits pronounced mast seeding. Chionochloa suffers very high levels of pre-dispersal flower and seed predation by three main insects: Eucalyptodiplosis chionochloae, a cecidomyiid midge, which is formally described here; Megacraspedus calamogonus, a gelechiid moth and Diplotoxa ...
