Landscape configuration and soil properties shape ant-mediated seed dispersal in tropical dry forest agricultural landscapes. [PDF]
J Anim EcolWe show that ant‐mediated seed dispersal components respond differently to local soil conditions and landscape structure in Caatinga agricultural mosaics. Low‐intensity rainfed croplands maintained or enhanced seed removal compared to natural remnants, highlighting how small‐scale agriculture can sustain key ecological processes in human‐modified dry ...

A global review of mistletoe frugivory and seed dispersal: The plant perspective. [PDF]
Plant Biol (Stuttg)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.

Hybrid Fractionation of Cowpea: Combining Dry and Wet Routes to Produce Versatile Protein Ingredients. [PDF]
J Food SciABSTRACT Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L.) is an underutilized protein‐rich pulse with strong potential to diversify the alternative protein market, particularly through sustainable fractionation strategies. However, comparative insights into how dry and hybrid routes influence protein structure, functionality, and nutritional quality within the same ...
