Palatability of geophyte underground storage organs partially explains their depth in the Cape Floristic Region, geophyte capital of the world [PDF]
American Journal of Botany, Volume 113, Issue 10, October 2026.Abstract Premise The soil depth of underground storage organs (USOs) of geophytes involves cost–benefit trade‐offs and may relate to USO age, size, and disturbances such as fire and herbivory. Yet determinants of USO depth are poorly studied. We posit that belowground mammalian predation of USOs is a selective force for the positive relationship ...
