A seed rain community in a reforested post-agricultural field and adjacent secondary forest of Mount Papandayan Nature Reserve, West Java, Indonesia

Nuri Nurlaila Setiawan et al.

Summary: Understanding the mechanisms and barriers to land restoration post agriculture is crucial for effective ecosystem restoration. Seed dispersal and diversity play a key role in forest restoration, with surrounding vegetation and adult tree abundance affecting seed rain in reforested areas.

Effects of mast seeding and insect infestation on predation and dispersal of Castanea mollissima nuts by rodents in the Qinling Mountains of China

Jing Wang et al.

Summary: The study found that rodents were able to distinguish between infested and non-infested nuts of Castanea mollissima, and their predation and dispersal behaviors were influenced by both food abundance and mast seeding conditions. Rodents consumed infested nuts on the spot but tended to cache non-infested nuts, resulting in different dispersal distances. Mast seeding promoted seed caching, especially non-infested seeds, leading to enhanced seed germination and forest regeneration.

Seed traits and rodent community interact to determine seed fate: evidence from both enclosure and field experiments

Xiang Hou et al.

Summary: The traits of seeds such as weight, coat thickness, and nutritional content play a role in influencing the choice of seeds by rodents, supporting both the handling time hypothesis and the high nutrition hypothesis. Different rodent species show preferences for seeds with different physical and nutritional traits, demonstrating the complex interactions between seed dispersal, predation, and mutualism within an animal community.
