| الوصف: | Large earthworms consume substantial numbers of seeds, above and below ground. Many are deposited in a viable state in wormcasts on the soil surface. Such wormcasts apparently provide particularly favourable conditions for seedling establishment. Plants with seeds that are readily ingested by earthworms are likely to be at an advantage over other species in at least some communities. This neglected area of plant-animal interactions lends itself well to student projects, a number of which are suggested. Such investigations could yield valuable new information, with implications for turf management and the composition of natural communities. |
