Mutualistic Interactions between Flowering Plants and AnimalsUtgave 1

This book provides information about the key aspects of plant-animal interactions, both mutualistic and antagonistic, which are important for the functioning of communities in their natural habitats and play a crucial role in the diversification of plants and animals. It covers the fundamental and applied aspects of these eco-services, including pollination and seed dispersal, and discusses their critical role in sustaining biodiversity. Detailing the basic concepts of these mutualistic interactions, the subject matter of this book also includes:

• Plant-Pollinator-Robber Interaction
• Recent Advances on Biotic Seed Dispersal by Vertebrates
• Pollination Diversity in Orchids
• Pollen-Pistil Interaction and Fertilization
• Seed Dispersal and Seed Predation

The book will serve as a comprehensive guide for post-graduate students, teachers and researchers in the areas of Biology, Ecology, Botany, Zoology, Agri-horticulture, Forestry, and Conservation Biology.
