The Structure of Plant-Animal Mutualistic Networks (2006, background): “For example, the life cycle of 89.5 % of the woody plants in tropical rainforests depend on vertebrate animals for seed dispersal (Jordano 2000).”
The Role of Mammals in Creating and Modifying Seedshadows in Tropical Forests and Some Possible Consequences of Their Elimination (2007, background): “Nevertheless, novel tracking techniques using genetic information promise new insights into the knowledge of this phenomenon (Godoy & Jordano 2001, Grivet et al. 2005, Wang et al. 2007).”
The macroecology of animal versus wind pollination: ecological factors are more important than historical climate stability (2016, positive): “Interestingly, current climate may play a similar role for seed dispersal as there is also a pattern of higher importance of animal dispersers in rain forests, whereas in dry forests wind and self-dispersal are more common (Howe and Smallwood 1982; Jordano 2000 and references therein).”
Who dispersed the seeds? The use of DNA barcoding in frugivory and seed dispersal studies (2014, background): “This involves a mutualistic interaction with plants that can be identified in, for example, up to 98% of tropical rainforest or 60% of Mediterranean shrubland woody species (Jordano 2014).”
Effects of seed dispersal on Juniperus communis recruitment on a Mediterranean mountain (2001, background): “Therefore, two main types of demographic effects have been suggested for seed dispersers (Schupp 1993; Jordano 2000; Jordano & Schupp 2000): (1) a quantitative effect, related to the number and proportion of seeds that dispersers remove from mother plants; (2) a qualitative effect, related mainly to”
Is There a Latitudinal Gradient in the Importance of Biotic Interactions (2009, background): “Moles et al. (2007) found that the fraction of animal-dispersed plants increased from high to low latitude regions, and Jordano (2000) observed that >90% of tropical plant species rely on animals for seed dispersal.”
Spatial variation in ant and rodent post‐dispersal predation of vertebrate‐dispersed seeds (2002, background): “Mediterranean scrublands may produce 60–1400 × 10 3 ripe fruits ha − 1 (Jordano 2000), which can be an important seed resource for granivores.”
Natural Regeneration in Plantations of Native Trees in Lowland Brazilian Atlantic Forest: Community Structure, Diversity, and Dispersal Syndromes (2011, background): “Dispersal Syndromes The predominance of zoochorous species in natural regeneration follows the well-known tropical-forest pattern (Howe & Smallwood 1982; Jordano 2000).”
Frugivory at Juniperus communis depends more on population characteristics than on individual attributes (2001, positive): “Spatial and temporal variation in the interactions between a plant species and its frugivores may be a major influence on the process of seed dispersal, and thus have demographic and evolutionary effects (Jordano 1992, 1994; Thompson 1994; Herrera 1995).”
