The Nest Chemistry of Two Seed-Dispersing Ant SPecies
Abstract
It is suggested the relocation to Myrmica nests, rich in phosphorus, potassium and nitrogen, may result in greater survivorship of seedlings, and the hypothesis that relocation of ant-dispersed seeds into ant nests may be advantageous to the plant species involved is suggested.
