Just started 2nd batch of Endozoochory experiment. We simulated rumen conditions in vitro to explore how cattle gut fluid influences weed seed viability and germination. Understanding endozoochory's role in spreading weeds could help us manage invasive plants more effectively!

「內攜傳播」（Endozoochory）指得是種子經過生物的腸道後排出，藉此從一地傳播至另一地。
以前這方面相關的研究都是著眼在脊椎動物上，但最近日本的研究發現，無脊椎動物也有這個技能喔！

Endozoochory: यह बीज प्रकीर्णन का एक प्रकार है...!!

-जन्तु फल खाते हैं
-लीद से बीज बाहर आते हैं
-फिर बीज से पौधे बनते हैं
-फिर पौधों पर फल लगते हैं

नोट: गोबर खाद से उत्पादन अधिक होता है.

Several factors explain the distribution of tree dispersal modes in #Amazonia . The availability of dispersal agents is only one of them. The distribution of anemochory and endozoochory might, for instance, relate to soil fertility. Check out our diagram doi.org/10.1111/geb.13…

Nominated for Most Fabulous Fruit Display in a Floodplain Forest: #Arisaema triphyllum ( #Araceae ; eUS native)! It was a very good year for this Jack-in-the-Pulpit, a species that has ability to shift from male to female flowers w/ more resources. #Aroid #PlantEmmys #Endozoochory

i've been planting my favorite tomatoes in distant lands by feeding them to birds and distributing their seeds via endozoochory

Ringed, collected their poop, brushed for epizoochory. You can go now! #endozoochory #epizoochory Andy J. Green Balázs Lukács José A. Alves CoDisperse

New paper out led by the brilliant Ádám Lovas-Kiss on seed dispersal during migration of Pink-footed Geese between UK/Iceland. 35 plant species dispersed by #endozoochory , allows terrestrial/aquatic plants to cross the ocean & keep pace with climate change

論文（2011）。9種のカタツムリに2種の地衣類の葉状体を摂食させ、糞ペレットから再繁殖されるか調査。Lobaria pulmonariaで29.0%、Physcia adscendensで40.9%がペレットから地衣体を生じた。カタツムリによる地衣類の体内性分散（endozoochory）が可能であることが示された。 journals.plos.org/plosone/articl…

The highly #invasive Russian olive (Elaeagnus angustifolia) from Mallard faeces is growing well! This species is causing big problems in Hungary! #endozoochory Andy J. Green CoDisperse

The rough woodlouse is now the smallest animal known to disperse seeds by eating and excreting them — a process known as endozoochory. My latest story for Science Magazine on this new study is out now!

Mountain Tapirs may have coevolved & become coadapted with Andean plants, some of which have no other adaptations for seed dispersal (endozoochory) ...This makes them a #keystone species #2021MMM

Happy to have attended #GTOE2022 !
It was a pleasure to talk about #climate and #microhabitat effects on the importance of #endozoochory in the astonishing tropical #montane forests of Southern #Ecuador TMFRespect (FOR2730) Senckenberg Research Goethe-Universität

Not a bad setting to be sampling to! Several Greenland Barnacle goose & Pink-footed goose samples 'in the bag' #endozoochory

One of the main take-home messages from ⁦Andy J. Green⁩ ‘s talk is that nom-frugivorous endozoochory has a huge research gap. Might it be that we misregard the most important dispersal vectors?

#EBDpub on the capacity of waterbirds to disperse freshwater exotic invertebrates (e.g. Physella acuta and Artemia franciscana) by endozoochory. Gulls and storks help the dispersal of these invertebrates between natural and artificial habitats. bit.ly/3FfXk9N

You can't imagine how excited I was to share the results of my second PhD chapter on seedecol7!
On this occasion, it was not necessary to convince the public of how amazing the seeds are😉
