Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021 Seed dispersal is crucial to gene flow among plant populations. Although the effects of geographic distance and barriers to gene flow are well studied in many systems, it is unclear how seed dispersal mediates gene flow in conjunction with interacting ...

Dissecting Between-Plant and Within-Plant Wage Dispersion - Evidence from Germany [PDF]
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2018 Using rich linked employer–employee data for (West) Germany between 1996 and 2014, we conduct a decomposition analysis based on recentered influence function (RIF) regressions to analyze the relative contributions of various plant and worker characteristics to the rise in German wage dispersion.

Ecology and Evolution, 2023 Ants disperse seeds of many plant species adapted to myrmecochory. While advantages of this ant–plant mutualism for myrmecochorous plants (myrmecochores) have been previously studied in temperate region mostly in forests, our study system was a pasture ...

DNA fingerprinting validates seed dispersal curves from observational studies in the neotropical legume parkia. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Determining the distances over which seeds are dispersed is a crucial component for examining spatial patterns of seed dispersal and their consequences for plant reproductive success and population structure.

Ecosphere, 2019 Asexual propagules produced by mosses and lichens may help to maintain their community composition in boreal forests. Understanding the factors affecting the deposition of asexual propagules and their link with the community composition may reveal how ...

Can plant traits predict seed dispersal probability via red deer guts, fur, and hooves?
Ecology and Evolution, 2019 Seed dispersal by mammals provides functional connectivity between isolated plant habitat patches. Across much of Europe, red deer (Cervus elaphus) populations are growing steadily, potentially leading to increasing importance of this large mammal ...

Dispersal Behavior Characters of Spodoptera frugiperda Larvae
Insects, 2023 The fall armyworm (FAW), Spodoptera frugiperda (J. E. Smith) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae), is a major pest of corn worldwide. FAW larval dispersal is an important life strategy that influences FAW population distribution in corn fields and subsequent plant ...

Wind-Generated Seed Shadow in Southern Brazil: The Influence of the Mother Plant and Wind Direction
Floresta e Ambiente, 2020 Diaspore dispersal is an essential function of plant species, with effects on plant populations and natural forest dynamics. This study examines how traits of the mother plant (height, crown spread and distance from the diaspores) and the wind (wind ...

Seed rain and seed bank reveal that seed limitation strongly influences plant community assembly in grasslands. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Dispersal is an important factor in plant community assembly, but assembly studies seldom include information on actual dispersal into communities, i.e. the local propagule pool.
