Foodwebs based on unreliable foundations: spatiotemporal masting merged with consumer movement, storage, and diet
Mast‐fruiting trees represent a pulsed resource that both supports and destabilizes
consumer populations. Whereas a reliable resource is abundant on average and with …

Evidence of high individual variability in seed management by scatter-hoarding rodents: does 'personality'matter?
The predation and dispersal of seeds by scatter-hoarding animals is one of the most studied
processes in the context of animal–plant interactions. Seed management by these animals …

Tolerance to seed predation mediated by seed size increases at lower latitudes in a Mediterranean oak
Abstract Background and Aims The ability of plants to allocate energy to resistance against
herbivores changes with abiotic conditions and thus may vary along geographical clines …

Deciphering the role of reproductive investment, pollination success and predispersal seed predation on reproductive output in Juniperus thurifera
E Rodriguez-García, JM Olano, O Leroux… - Plant Ecology & …, 2019 - Taylor & Francis
Background: Plant reproductive output is determined by a complex set of factors including
resource availability, pollination success and pre-dispersal predation. Disentangling the …

Rates and prevalences of predispersal seed predation on plant communities across a latitudinal gradient
BW Boyer - 2019 - etda.libraries.psu.edu
Predispersal seed predation occurs whenever the seeds of a plant are consumed or
otherwise killed before the fruit containing them is dispersed from the parent plant …
