Native ants help to spread an invasive African grass in the Cerrado
- 1. Federal University of São Carlos

Description
Plant-animal interactions may facilitate biological invasions. The African grass Urochloa decumbens is an aggressive invader in the Cerrado. We demonstrate that native ants are dispersing the seeds to short distances, allowing the gradual spread of the invasive to sites without the need of great anthropogenic soil disturbances.
