Modelling seed dispersal by animals seems straightforward; we need a way to keep track of
the position on the animal through time and a clock for how long seeds travel with it …

Forest fragmentation and habitat loss are major disruptors of plant–frugivore interactions,
affecting seed dispersal and altering recruitment patterns of the dependent tree species. In a …

Seed dispersal is critical for maintaining ecosystem structure and over half of plant species
worldwide rely on animals for dispersal. Animal-mediated seed dispersal requires tight links …

Premise In fleshy‐fruited plants, fruit removal is widely used as a proxy for plant reproductive
success. Nevertheless, this proxy may not accurately reflect the number of seeds dispersed …

Nurse plants provide benefits during the early life cycle of the protected plant by reducing
the intensity of stressful abiotic conditions. However, nurse plants may influence frugivore …

Various factors may mediate the visitation of frugivores to fruiting plants, which can dictate
the quantum of seeds removed (dispersed) away from the parent plant. Past studies have …

Invasive alien species play a major role in biodiversity decline. We studied the impacts of
invasive alien plant species (IAPS) on bird assemblages and their habitats in Jalthal Forest …
