This project examines the dispersal mechanisms of plants, comparing species with underground and aerial fruits. It aims to understand how these traits affect geographic distribution and local adaptation, providing insights into evolutionary ecology and potential agricultural applications.
How an organism disperses is expected to strongly influence its geographic distribution and degree of local adaptation.
However, empirical tests of these assumptions are lacking and it is unclear why closely related organisms differ in their dispersal behavior.
Here, we propose to elucidate the consequences of dispersal by investigating why some organisms do not disperse.
Plants with non-dispersing underground fruits will be compared with similar taxa with aerial fruits.
The latter are assumed t…
