Bird pollinators, seed storage and cockatoo granivores explain large woody fruits as best seed defense in Hakea

Nutrient-impoverished soils with severe summer drought and frequent fire typify many Mediterranean-type regions of the world. Such conditions limit seed production and restrict opportunities for seedling recruitment making protection from granivores paramount. Our focus was on Hakea, a genus of shru...
