  • The Impact of Cognition on Seed Dispersal
    Fall 08 Animal Cognition Meets Ecosystem Ecology: the Impact of Cognition on Seed Dispersal Francesca Soldati Doctor of Philosophy 2015 Animal Cognition Meets Ecosystem Ecology: the Impact of Cognition on Seed Dispersal Francesca Soldati A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the University of Lincoln for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy This research programme was carried out in collaboration with the School of Life Sciences August 2015 Abstract Seed dispersal by endozoochory is important for the maintenance of plant populations and biodiversity. As a result, understanding the impact that frugivores’ activities have on seed dispersal is essential in order to better understand plant population dynamics. One factor that is known to affect an animal’s behaviour, yet has received little attention in this context, is animal cognition i.e. whether the information animals learn and remember affects where they access fruit and deposit seeds. Therefore, the aim of this thesis was to address how animal learning and memory affects the seed dispersal process, using two key approaches – experimental tests of frugivore cognition, and a model paramaterised to examine the consequences of different cognitive abilities on seed dispersal. Three questions were investigated: (1) The “where?” - whether the ability of frugivores to relocate previously visited food sources impacts upon their movements and, as a consequence, on plants’ seed shadows. The spatial learning and memory of red-footed tortoises was tested using an egocentric task. Tortoises were able to navigate efficiently in the environment, and remembered the spatial location of food for at least two months. A seed dispersal model designed to test whether frugivores with different spatial memory skills differently affect plants’ seed shadow, suggested that animals with long spatial memory relocate more efficiently food sources than animals’ with shorter memory.

  • ECOLOGY and CONSERVATION of LARGE-BODIED AVIAN FRUGIVORES of LUZON, PHILIPPINES CARMELA P. ESPAÑOLA a Thesis Submitted in Part
    ECOLOGY AND CONSERVATION OF LARGE-BODIED AVIAN FRUGIVORES OF LUZON, PHILIPPINES CARMELA P. ESPAÑOLA A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the Manchester Metropolitan University for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Division of Biology and Conservation Ecology School of Science and the Environment Manchester Metropolitan University 2013 ABSTRACT Avian frugivores across Southeast Asia, and in the Philippines in particular, are seriously threatened owing to massive loss of habitat and direct exploitation through hunting and the pet trade. Their declines may have dire consequences for wider ecological processes as many frugivores are also seed dispersers. Conservation programmes in the Philippines are crippled by a lack of knowledge on the status, abundance and ecology of frugivores which extend to other endemic species in the country. This PhD identified factors that influenced frugivore community composition as well as drivers of frugivore distribution across Luzon, the largest island in the Philippines. It also developed cost-effective methods for gathering baseline ecological data to inform conservation measures for frugivores and other little-known species over large geographical areas. This included a way of correcting for the bias caused by non-random transect placement in a study site which is often the case during bird surveys in the tropics. Twenty-five species of pigeons, parrots and hornbills were surveyed using distance sampling along nearly 500 km of line transects at 14 sites across the island of Luzon. I documented surprisingly few reliable disappearances of frugivores from individual forest patches – in fact this and other fieldwork since 2000 has increased the known extent of occurrence of several species.

  • The Evolution of Seed Dispersal Syndromes in Prunus
    University of Nevada, Reno The evolution of seed dispersal syndromes in Prunus A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Ecology, Evolution and Conservation Biology by Maurie J. Beck Stephen B. Vander Wall, Dissertation Advisor August, 2009 THE GRADUATE SCHOOL We recommend that the dissertation prepared under our supervision by MAURIE BECK entitled The Evolution Of Seed Dispersal Syndromes In Prunus be accepted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Stephen B. Vander Wall, Advisor Stephen H. Jenkins, Committee Member William S. Longland, Committee Member David W. Zeh, Committee Member Thomas J. Nickles , Graduate School Representative Marsha H. Read, Ph. D., Associate Dean, Graduate School August, 2009 i ABSTRACT There are two fruit types in the genus Prunus. The majority of species have fleshy- fruited drupes, which are considered the ancestral phenotype. In the deserts of Eurasia and North America there are also species that produce dry fruits and large nuts, suggesting this fruit type has originated independently on numerous occasions in response to dry conditions. Fleshy-fruited Prunus are dispersed by frugivorous animals, primarily birds and some mammalian carnivores. In this dissertation, by documenting complete seed fate pathways, I demonstrate that desert peach (Prunus andersonii), a dry, nut-producing species in the western Great Basin of North America, is only dispersed by scatter- hoarding rodents. Additionally, I demonstrate that western chokecherry (P. virginiana var. demissa, Rosaceae) is also dispersed by scatter-hoarding rodents, following primary dispersal by endozoochorous frugivores. This type of two-phased seed dispersal is a form of diplochory, a process that employs different modes of dispersal during sequential dispersal phases and usually offers unique benefits during each phase.

Americo Vespucio S/N, E-41092 Sevilla, Spain ABSTRACT Synzoochory is the dispersal of seeds by seed-caching animals. The animal partner in this interaction plays a dual role, acting both as seed disperser and seed predator. We propose that this duality gives to synzoochory two distinctive features that have crucial ecological and evolutionary consequences. First, because plants attract animals that have not only positive (seed dispersal) but also negative (seed predation) impacts on their fitness, the evolution of adaptations to synzoochory is strongly constrained. Consequently, it is not easy to identify traits that define a synzoochorous dispersal syndrome. The absence of clear adaptations entails the extra difficulty of identifying synzoochorous plants by relying on dispersal traits, limiting our ability to explore the full geographic, taxonomic and phylogenetic extent of synzoochory. Second, the positive and negative outcomes of interactions with synzoochorous animals are expressed simultaneously. Consequently, synzoochorous interactions are not exclusively mutualistic or antagonistic, but are located at some point along a mutualism–antagonism continuum.

These behaviors shape seed dispersal patterns, which can be applied to conservation of populations, communities, and even ecosystems dominated by large-seeded trees. We draw on a growing body of literature to describe the ecological context and consequences of scatter-hoarding as a seed dispersal mechanism. We synthesize the quantitative literature on the interaction between members of the avian family Corvidae (crows, ravens, jays, magpies, and nutcrackers) and nut-bearing trees such as pines (Pinus spp.) and oaks (Quercus spp.) to examine unique aspects of avian scatter-hoarders as seed dispersers. During the scatter-hoarding process, seed selectivity, transportation distance, hoarding frequency, and cache placement affect seed dispersal effectiveness, a measure of the quantity and quality of dispersal.
