We collected 150 fruits per species in forest fragments in the city of Lavras, Minas Gerais, Brazil, between July and August 2020. Seeds were examined and separated into predated and non-predated categories. The predated category was divided into two subcategories: predated by Coleoptera (Bruchinae) (PCO) and predated in the presence of Coleoptera parasitoids (PARCO). The non-predated category was divided into artificially injured (AI), intact seeds without insect infestation (IS), and intact seeds with insect infestation (SIF). Seeds of <em>S. multijuga</em> and <em>L. leucocephala</em> germinated to 40% and 30%, respectively. PCO and PARCO seeds not only had a negative and restricting influence on <em>S</em>. <em>multijuga</em> germination (no germination) but also contributed to a large proportion of non-viable predated seeds (38%). PCO (7%) and PARCO (23%), on the other hand, improved <em>L</em>. <em>leucocephala</em> germination. This work represents one of the first attempt to evaluate the parasitoid effect on seeds germination. Our results contribute to a better understanding of the effect of herbivore predation and the presence of parasitoids on host plant seed germination, which can be critical to mother plant fitness depending on plant species. Further studies are necessary to determine the extend seed consumption by beetles and the presence of their parasitoids may facilitate or impair seed germination, and consequently plant fitness in other systems.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":55564,"journal":{"name":"Acta Oecologica-International Journal of Ecology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2023-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49853717","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A detailed understanding of the interspecies relationships that occur within them will help in understanding how invertebrate diversity is maintained in forests, particularly with respect to resource utilization. The sequential use of the same food resource among several different species is called a processing chain. In this study, we focused on the aspects of leaf litter in the treeholes as a food and habitat resource, and tested the following hypotheses using artificial containers as treeholes with three different leaf litter samples categorized as “untreated”, “fragmented”, and “pulverized”: (1) inorganic ions would leach out as leaf fragmentation progresses, resulting in water acidification, which consequently affects invertebrates. (2) filter-feeder species that consume microorganisms and fine particle organic matter increase as leaf fragmentation progresses. (3) differences in the size of leaf litter fragments affect the inhabitant species and cause differences in the assemblage structure of invertebrates. We observed an increase in pH and dissolved oxygen (DO) with increasing the fragmentation of leaf litter; however, the results were marginally non-significant. The assemblage composition of aquatic invertebrates did not show clear patterns in relation to the leaf litter treatments. Invertebrate assemblages from treeholes with pulverized leaf litter appeared to be associated with increasing DO. We found that the filter-feeder <em>Tripteroides bambusa</em> (Diptera: Culicidae) was dominant under conditions where treeholes contained fine particles of leaf litter, while the benthic inhabitant Ceratopogonidae sp. (Diptera) dominated under conditions with coarse leaf litter fragments. Our results suggest that fragmentation of leaf litter may have different effects on the different dominant species. We conclude that resource processing does not necessarily have positive effects on the species.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":55564,"journal":{"name":"Acta Oecologica-International Journal of Ecology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2023-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49854205","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We found an overall negative effect of anthropogenic disturbances on diaspore removal by ants (26% decrease), both in temperate and tropical regions (38% and 19% decrease, respectively). In addition, diaspore removal by ants responded negatively to disturbances related to fragmentation (24% decrease) and mining (83% decrease). However, we found no evidence of effects in areas subjected to agricultural processes (0.9% decrease).

Aboveground plant biomass remarkably increased with time under short-term fencing, but no differences were found under long-term fencing. As for underground plant biomass, it obviously increased with time under short-term fencing, but significantly decrease under long-term fencing. Moreover, plant species richness firstly decreased and then increased with time under short-term fencing, while it significantly decrease under long-term fencing. The analysis of variance test showed that all species pairs in short-term fencing have a positive correlation, while negative correlation in long-term fencing.

As palmito fruits are keystone resources for many frugivorous animals, the decline in abundance of reproductive plants may reduce food resources for dispersal agents and alter their foraging patterns. Changes in frugivore foraging patterns might translate into changes in zoochorous seed abundance and seed rain richness. Besides, when palmito is a dominant canopy species in lowland forests, population decline may lead to an increase in the amount of light reaching the understory. In our study, we have shown that in areas where predation by capuchin monkeys have eliminated palmito, the abundance and richness of zoochorous seeds in the seed rain are lower compared with areas with lower or no impact of capuchin-monkeys. The abundance of zoochorous seeds in the seed rain is lower in periods of palmito fruiting in areas where the palm occurs. Canopy openness was found to be higher in the area where capuchin-monkey predation of palm heart was higher. We have concluded that the impact of capuchin monkeys on palmito affects seed rain abundance, most likely due to changes in frugivore foraging patterns. In addition, changes in palmito abundance led to changes in the extent of canopy openness in the area of our study.

We recorded 160 interactions between 21 bird species and 11 plant species.

Despite the number of interactions being higher in the rainy season, network parameters were consistent across the seasons and presented no explicit differences. However, the network connectance was slightly higher in the rainy season than in the dry season, while the specialization index was higher in the dry season than in the rainy season. <em>Elaenia</em> sp., <em>Mimus saturninus</em>, and <em>Cyanocorax cyanopogon</em> were the bird species that presented the highest number of links.

The large discrepancy between the lists of species detected by DNA metabarcoding and the GR method argues against the FF hypothesis. However, in the case of <em>Urtica dioica</em>, <em>Lysimachia vulgaris</em> and <em>Lythrum salicaria</em>, some clues of evolutionary adaptation to endozoochoric dispersal were revealed for: 1) their foliage is attractive to herbivores; 2) seeds are small, rounded in shape, yielded in large numbers and pass safely through the herbivore's gut; 3) the abundance of seeds (seedlings) was significantly and strongly influenced by the abundance of the plant biomass (DNA reads) in dung samples; 4) peaks in seed abundance and biomass consumption coincided in time.
