Major terminologies and concepts in seed dispersal biology
Seed dispersal is a research hotspot nowadays in evolutionary biology, conservation biology, and restoration biology, with a rapid development over the last two'decades in the world. However, little related research has been reported in China, and many terminologies and concepts in seed dispersal biology are hard understandable to relevant Chinese researchers. This paper collected the major terminologies and concepts in seed dispersal biology, aimed to contribute to constructing the framework of terminologies and concepts in seed dispersal biology and to hastening the seed dispersal research in China.
