In this project you will design some of your own "seeds" and see which ones work best when they are blown across the room by a fan. Background Dispersal of seeds is very important for the survival ...

Seed dispersal by animals is called ‘zoochory’ — here’s our explainer video with more info: The trapeze artists. Few animals are as vocal about their love of fruits as monkeys, some of ...

A researchers now summarizes all of these early evolutionary responses in plants, arguing that these shared traits evolved in response to human seed-dispersal services. The plants we consume for ...

Scientists have discovered one of the earliest examples of a winged seed, granting insight into the origin and early evolution of wind dispersal strategies in plants. Scientists have discovered ...

Large animals, such as elephants, play a vital role in a region's seed dispersal network, the team says Drivers of biodiversity loss, such as habitat fragmentation and climate change, are ...

Seed dispersal is the main point in a plant’s life cycle when it can move to a new location (SN: 11/14/22). So dispersal is crucially important for understanding how plant populations are ...

Now an international team including Imperial researchers has uncovered the biomechanical 'decisions' behind dandelion seed dispersal. Their work, published in Nature Communications, found the seed ...

Figure 1: Seed dispersal simulations of five wind-dispersed tree species around the Duke Forest tower, for 35 days during the autumn of 2000. The above sampling problem could be resolved by ...

Drivers of biodiversity loss, such as habitat fragmentation and climate change, are threatening seed dispersal around the globe, a study has warned. Scientists said plant species that were unable ...
