Unmasking the architecture of ant-diaspore networks in the Brazilian Savanna.
Ant-diaspore interactions are directly related to fruit consumption, seed predation and dispersal, being determinant for the plant fitness. However, although abundant and diversified, these ecological interactions have been neglected in network studies. Understanding the structure of these networks...
