Masting is uncommon in trees that depend on mutualist dispersers in the context of global climate and fertility gradients
The benefits of masting (volatile, quasi-synchronous seed production at lagged intervals)
include satiation of seed predators, but these benefits come with a cost to mutualist pollen …
