Effects of manakin gut passage on germination of a neotropical melastome shrub (Melastomataceae)
In a paired germination experiment, we found that manakin gut passage accelerated germination of a common and widespread Melastome shrub, Miconia rubescens, which may function as an important pioneer in regenerating rainforest. Manakin species varied in their gut passage effects and within species, body mass correlated with greater and earlier ...
