Seed fate in ant‐mediated dispersal: Seed dispersal effectiveness in the Ectatomma ruidum (Formicidae)—Zanthoxylum ekmanii (Rutaceae) system

Biotropica, Volume 54, Issue 3, Page 764-775, May 2022., 2022
Using the seed dispersal effectiveness framework, we tracked seed fate in a dispersal limited system finding that ant workers (Formicidae, Ectatomma ruidum) act as secondary dispersers for the pioneer tree Zanthoxylum ekmanii (Rutaceae) whose seeds have no visible adaptation for ant dispersal.

Abstract The concept of food sovereignty is regularly conceived as one side of a binary. Thus, scholars frequently juxtapose food sovereignty—as embodied in small‐scale, customary, or peasant agriculture—against large‐scale, industrial, and global modes of food production.
