Effect sizes of vertebrate gut passage and fruit handling by ants on germination performance. Overall effects are for germination percentage (circle) and mean germination time (square). Animal groups mediating germination are Formicidae, Rodentia, Didelphimorphia, Primates and Aves (from top to bottom). The cumulative effect size is reported with its 95 % confidence interval. Numbers in parentheses indicate the number of outcomes for each effect. Effects are significant if the confidence intervals do not overlap zero.
