- Herbivory on freshwater and marine macrophytes: A review and perspective (2016, background): “…seeds often have thick and impermeable coats, necessary to withstand their severe scarification in waterbird guts (which tend to retain selectively such larger seeds(Kleyheeg, 2015) and the severe physicochemical treatment exerted by their guts (Figuerola et al., 2002; Santamaria et al., 2002).”
- Passive internal transport of aquatic organisms by waterfowl in Doñana, south-west Spain (2003, background): “This adds to evidence that waterfowl in Doñana transport propagules externally (Figuerola & Green, 2002b).”
- Small seed size increases the potential for dispersal of wetland plants by ducks (2008, background): “Such conditions occur only during long migratory flights, the mechanism for reaching maximum dispersal distances via transport by ducks (Figuerola & Green 2002; Green et al. 2002; but see Clausen et al. 2002).”
- Seed dispersal into wetlands: Techniques and results for a restored tidal freshwater marsh (2005, background): “Animals and birds may carry viable seed in their gut, on their fur or feathers, or in mud on their feet (DeVlaming and Proctor 1968, Crawley 1983, Fenner 1985, Smits et al. 1989, Vivian-Smith and Stiles 1994, Figuerola et al. 2002, Mueller and van der Valk 2002).”
- Seed dispersal by fishes in tropical and temperate fresh waters: The growing evidence (2011, background): “Most temperate aquatic and riparianplants, on the other hand, produce hard, grain-like fruits with a very small proportion of edible pulp material (Figuerola et al., 2002).”
- Seed dispersal effectiveness revisited: a conceptual review. (2010, background): “Similarly, most studies of SDE focus on endozoochorous dispersal of fleshy-fruited species, but the concept has been applied to waterfowl dispersing grass seeds (Figuerola et al., 2002) and scatter-hoarding rodents dispersing nuts (Hollander & Vander Wall, 2004; Gómez et al., 2008).”
