- W4306360114 abstract "Abstract Seeds produced by individual plants often vary substantially in size. Typically, larger seeds produce seedlings that have higher chances of establishment and survival relative to seedlings produced by smaller seeds. However, larger seeds are also preferred by granivores due to larger caloric content. While choosing the patch to forage, granivores might avoid the ones with smaller, less preferred seeds. We tested a novel hypothesis that the production of different size seeds by a plant may be a strategy to decrease predation by granivores. We conducted a 3-year seed removal experiment. We presented Quercus robur acorns in forests in three configurations: large acorns alone, medium acorns alone, and large acorns mixed with small ones. The impact of seed size on seed survival was inconsistent: in the first year of the study, survival probability for seeds in the mixed treatment was significantly higher than survival probability of large seeds alone, supporting our hypothesis. However, in the following years, results were non-significant, probably because of reduced granivore selectivity in poor seed crop years. Our study demonstrated that the impact of neighbourhood of different size seeds seed survival varied over time in Q. robur . This provides limited evidence that intraspecific variation in seed size could evolve to shift the interaction between trees and scatter hoarders away from predation and towards mutualism." @default.
