A global review of mistletoe frugivory and seed dispersal: The plant perspective

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
We reviewed studies on mistletoe frugivory and seed dispersal worldwide. Although mistletoes are relatively well studied, major taxonomic, geographic, and methodological gaps remain. We conclude that modern technologies offer new opportunities to address long‐standing but still poorly explored questions about these interactions.
