SEED MASS AND MAST SEEDING ENHANCE DISPERSAL BY A NEOTROPICAL SCATTER-HOARDING RODENT (2004, background): “Intra-specific variation in seed size affects scatterhoarding behaviour of an Australian tropical rain forest rodent.”
Rodent scatterhoarders as conditional mutualists. (2005, background): “Thus, all seedlings I found were apparently from rat-cached seeds (Theimer, 2001).”
MAST SEEDING IN PERENNIAL PLANTS: Why, How, Where? (2002, background): “…Long 1995, Sullivan & Kelly 2000, Shibata et al. 1998) and vertebrates (e.g., Boucher 1981, Nilsson 1985, Smith et al. 1990, Crawley & Long 1995, Hart 1995, Wolff 1996, Forget et al. 1999, Vander Wall 2001, Theimer 2001), although some counter-examples exist (Ågren 1988, Hart 1995, Sperens 1997).”
How plants manipulate the scatter-hoarding behaviour of seed-dispersing animals (2010, background): “Typically, removal of experimental nuts and seeds is slower in the mast years (Crawley & Long 1995; Theimer 2001; Li & Zhang 2007).”
