- W1978210873 abstract "The dispersal of seeds by ants, myrmecochory, is a frequent feature among herbs from many families in mesic temperate forests. These ant-dispersed plants have a special fat body, the elaiosome, incorporated in each diaspore, the unit of dispersal. The elaiosome is food for the ants of many species, whose workers carry the seed + elaiosome unit to their nest, where the elaiosome is eaten and the seed discarded unharmed with other nest debris. The seed then germinates, often dispersed from the parent plant. This plant-ant relationship differs from activities of the true harvester ants which gather and eat the seeds themselves. Some seeds transported by harvester ants may accidentally escape predation and germinate (Cole, 1932; Tevis, 1958). This plantharvester ant interaction is not mediated by an elaiosome bait, involves a great loss of seed to the plant species during dispersal, and is quite different from the antdispersal of Carex pedunculata to be discussed here. The presence of ants as potential dispersal agents will not alone result in their dispersing seeds. Because enhanced dispersal, generally, is associated with early successional species or with poor competitive ability in both plants and animals, investigations of naturally competing species should contribute to an understanding of dispersal mechanisms. I report here the results of competition experiments among three woodland sedges in the genus Carex (Cyperaceae), of which C. pedunculata is ant-dispersed, and discuss the implications of these experiments for the life history of C. pedunculata and for the development and patterning of the forest herb stratum." @default.
