  • Seed Dispersal by Ants in a Deciduous Forest Ecosystem

    Mechanisms, Strategies, Adaptations

    Countless ants transport and deposit seeds and thereby influence the survival, death, and evolution of many plant species. In higher plants, seed dispersal by ants (myrmecochory) has appeared many times independently in different lineages. More than 3000 plant species are known to utilize ant assistance to be planted. Myrmecochory is a very interesting and rather enigmatic form of mutualistic ant ... Leer más
