The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Are Primates Ecosystem Engineers? (2012, background): “…alterations in the transition probabilities between seed, seedling, sapling, and adult stages, the spatial component of these transitions, and the consequences for interspecific interactions among plants, e.g., allelopathy, competition (Balcomb and Chapman 2003; Schupp 1993; Schupp et al. 2010).”
A long-term evaluation of fruiting phenology: importance of climate change (2005, background): “This was not done at the community level since it was not clear how to compare a rank for a fruit such as Monodora myristica which is 16 cm in diameter vs Celtis durandii, which is less that 0.5 cm in diameter (Balcomb & Chapman 2003).”
Aggregated Seed Dispersal by Spider Monkeys Limits Recruitment to Clumped Patterns in Virola calophylla (2004, background): “We found significant differences among dispersal site types in per capita seed survival, but as in other studies (e.g. Herrera et al. 1994; Balcomb & Chapman 2003), there was considerable variability.”
The dispersal syndrome hypothesis: How animals shaped fruit traits, and how they did not (2020, unknown): “…2008; McConkey & Chivers, 2007; Stevenson, 2000), fruiting conspecifics (Harms, Wright, Calderón, Hernández, & Herre, 2000; Valenta & Fedigan, 2010) and microhabitat variables at seed deposition sites (Augspurger, 1984; Balcomb & Chapman, 2003; Razafindratsima & Dunham, 2015; Wang et al., 2019).”
