A Review of Methods Used to Study Seed Removal and Secondary Seed Dispersal; IndexThis book presents current knowledge of seed fate in both natural and human-disturbed landscapes, from various regions of the world. Habitats considered range from mountain and arid deserts in the temperate zone, to savanna and lowland rainforests in tropical regions of the world.SeedsCongressesSeeds631.5/21Forget Pierre-Michel1693946Symposium on "Post-Primary Seed Fate: Predation and Secondary Dispersal"MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910824868003321Seed fate4072116UNINA
