Effects of seed morphology and elaiosome chemical composition on attractiveness of five Trillium species to seed‐dispersing ants

Morphological and chemical attributes of diaspores in myrmecochorous plants have been shown to affect seed dispersal by ants, but the relative importance of these attributes in determining seed attractiveness and dispersal success is poorly understood. We explored whether differences in diaspore mor...
