1. Seed dispersal is of high applied relevance as it governs colonization processes in rare species and during plant invasions. Seed tracking is a powerful approach to analysing dispersal processes ...

Scientists have discovered a tropical “dynamite tree” that explosively launches seeds at 150 mph. The mechanism uses physics, ...

The apple might not fall far from the tree, but new research shows that how it falls might be what is most important in determining tree distribution across a forest. This study of the seed dispersal ...

CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Nov. 28, 2006 -- The apple might not fall far from the tree, but new research shows that how it falls might be what is most important in determining tree distribution across a forest ...

Three species of non-photosynthetic plants rely mainly on camel crickets to disperse their seeds, according to new research from Project Associate Professor Suetsugu Kenji (Kobe University Graduate ...

The objective of this study was to analyse quantitatively the spatial distribution of holly (Ilex aquifolium L.) seed rain and seed bank, and to detect the relationships between these consecutive ...

If you liked this story, share it with other people. Without seed dispersal plants could not survive. Seed dispersal—i.e. birds spreading seeds or wind carrying seeds—means the mechanism by which a ...

A new study says tree distribution in the rainforest is highly dependent on species’ method of seed dispersal. The research could help explain how a large number of rainforest trees can coexist in a ...

To be a majestic bundle of life and energy like a seed! Swimming through the water, soaring through the air, traveling across the lands ... Wait, what? Motionless is a common way to describe plants.
