Aim
To Study of Dispersal of Seeds by Various Agencies

INTRODUCTION
The Process of scattering of fruits and seeds to distant places away om their
parent is caalled dispersal on dessemination. It provides the new palnts better
chances of obtaining water, nutrients, lights and space thereby enabling them to
have a better start in Life.

The fruits and seeds develop many devices for better dispersal through different
agencies.

The principle agencies that aid in the dispersal of fruits and seeds are wind
(anemochary), water (hydrochory) and animals including man (zoochory). Besides,
some plants show self dispersal by explosive mechanism (autochory). The dispersal
through the agency of animals in consideredas the best and most successful
method. Dispersal thorugh agency of animals is considered as the best and most
successful method.Dispersal of seeds and fruits is quite Intresting subject of
natural phenomenon and hence the study of dispersal of seeds by various
agencieshas been selected for the present project.
