Animal‐mediated seed dispersal: A review of study methods
Applications in Plant Sciences, Volume 14, Issue 1, January-February 2026.Abstract By dispersing seeds, animals provide ecological functions critical for the ecology, evolution, and conservation of plants. We review quantitative and empirical approaches and emerging technologies to quantify processes and patterns of animal‐mediated seed dispersal (zoochory) across its phases: from predispersal to postdispersal.
