Seeded dispersion polymerization [PDF]
Journal of Applied Polymer Science, 2002 AbstractMicron‐size poly(n‐butyl acrylate) (PBA) and polystyrene (PSt) particles were used as seed in second‐stage seeded dispersion polymerizations. The effects of various polymerization parameters on the morphology of the structured particles resulting from the second‐stage seeded dispersion polymerizations were studied, and a series of uniform ...

SEED DISPERSAL OF DESERT ANNUALS
Ecology, 2008We quantified seed dispersal in a guild of Sonoran Desert winter desert annuals at a protected natural field site in Tucson, Arizona, USA. Seed production was suppressed under shrub canopies, in the open areas between shrubs, or both by applying an herbicide prior to seed set in large, randomly assigned removal plots (10-30 m diameter).

Frugivory and Seed Dispersal [PDF]
, 2021 Consumption of fleshy fruits by frugivorous animals, which then disperse the seeds inside, is a key ecological process, particularly in forests. Fruit is an easy food to consume but is nutritionally dilute so specialist frugivores need adaptations for efficient location, harvest, and digestion.

Pollination, Seed Predation, and Seed Dispersal
2006Insects are the major agents of pollination, seed predation, or seed dispersal in many ecosystems. Animal pollinators are critical to pollination and survival of many plant species that typically occur as widely scattered individuals, especially in deserts and tropical forests. Seed predators often consume the entire reproductive effort of host plants.

Reliability of macaques as seed dispersers
American Journal of Primatology, 2020AbstractSeed dispersal is an ecological process crucial for forest regeneration and recruitment. To date, most studies on frugivore seed dispersal have used the seed dispersal effectiveness framework and have documented seed‐handling mechanisms, dispersal distances and the effect of seed handling on germination.

In part three, on vegetation dynamics, it appeared that many species have become newly established in permanent plots in the study areas. Newly established species in a lot can have been present in the seed bank in the soil before emergence. This is only the case for species with a persistent seed bank sensu Thompson & Grime (1979).

Functional Ecology
Abstract The process of seed dispersal that underpins ecosystem maintenance is performed by diverse arrays of fruit‐eating animals. However, seed dispersal studies are primarily focused on a subset of these animal communities that disperse seeds by endozoochory. Stomatochory (seed dispersal in which seeds are carried externally and are not swallowed)

Plants, unlike animals, are organisms with a sessile adult stage, and consequently they need external vectors for moving their propagules (mainly seeds) away from mother plants. The movement of seeds is a central process in the life cycle of plants called seed dispersal (Howe and Smallwood 1982).
