Bulbuls and crows provide complementary seed dispersal for China’s endangered trees
Abstract Background Different functional frugivores generally exhibit unequal contributions, both in terms of quantity (seed removal) and quality (seedling recruitment), to effective seed dispersal of plant species. However, variations in this dispersal pattern generated by frugivores across differe...
