Article Synopsis
- - Urbanization is transforming cities and suburbs globally, making them more similar to each other and less like the local ecosystems they replaced, but its impact on large-scale ecological patterns is still unclear.
- - A study across 14,000 km in the Americas found that while seed predation increases from high to low latitudes in natural areas, this latitudinal trend remains strong even in urbanized regions despite significant habitat changes.
- - Urbanization reduced overall seed predation and vertebrate predation but had no significant effect on invertebrate predation, while increasing predation by ants, suggesting that urbanization can change predator dynamics and influence the evolution of urban species.
Does pollen limitation limit plant ranges? Evidence and implications.

Sexual reproduction often declines towards range edges, reducing fitness, dispersal and adaptive potential. For plants, sexual reproduction is frequently limited by inadequate pollination. While case studies show that pollen limitation can limit plant distributions, the extent to which pollination commonly declines towards plant range edges is unknown.
