Course Details

Introduction to Seed Dispersal: Understanding the basics of seed dispersal, its importance, and the different methods of seed dispersal.
Seed Dispersal Mechanisms: Exploring the various mechanisms that enable seeds to disperse, such as wind, water, animals, and explosive dehiscence.
Plant Adaptations for Seed Dispersal: Examining how plants have evolved to aid in seed dispersal through morphological, anatomical, and physiological adaptations.
Animal-Mediated Seed Dispersal: Delving into the relationship between animals and seed dispersal, including endozoochory, epizoochory, and myrmecochory.
Wind Dispersal of Seeds: Investigating the strategies plants employ to disperse seeds using wind, such as plumes, wings, and tumbleweeds.
Water Dispersal of Seeds: Exploring the mechanisms that enable seeds to float on water, including buoyant fruits and seed dormancy.
Seed Dispersal in Forest Ecosystems: Understanding the role of seed dispersal in maintaining forest health, diversity, and resilience.
Seed Dispersal and Climate Change: Examining how climate change impacts seed dispersal, and the implications for plant communities and conservation efforts.
Seed Dispersal Monitoring and Research Methods: Learning about the tools and techniques used to study seed dispersal, including field sampling, remote sensing, and modeling.
Seed Dispersal Conservation and Management: Applying knowledge of seed dispersal to conservation and management strategies, such as habitat restoration, invasive species control, and ecological restoration.
