#allochory
- Allochory — The dispersal of seeds, spores, or fruits of a plant with the help of external structural agents, such as wind (anemochory), water (hydrochory), animals (zoochory), or human activity (anthropochory); this phenomenon opposes autochory and ensures the colonization of new geographic habitats.
- Allochory — A phenomenon or modality of seed, spore, or fruit dispersal through external factors or vectors that are independent of the plant's own biological mechanisms (such as wind, water, animals, or human activity). This structural mechanism ensures the colonization of new geographical habitats and prevents intraspecific competition near the parent plant.
