> Abstract: 
> Fleshy fruits have evolved to attract animal visitors to promote seed dispersal. In addition to direct rewards such as nutrients, they have evolved elaborate displays to signal their presence, location, and quality to animal mutualists. This parallels the evolution of floral traits, many of them are adaptations whose function is to attract animal pollinators. While extensive research over the past decades unveiled a tremendous diversity of visual and olfactory adaptations in flower displays, the study of fruit traits lagged behind. Recent years have seen a growing interest in the evolution of fruit traits in the context of their interactions with seed dispersers. The talk will summarize recently published and unpublished data, examining how animals have shaped fruit color and scent. In addition, it will examine how animals respond to the chemical cues emitted by fruits, and finally, how animal sensory ecology can be harnessed to promote conservation efforts.
