3.2 | Bioassay using M. humile seeds
The ants carried away the M. humile seeds in 90 min. Table 2 shows the number of M. humile seeds carried to the nest within 90 min. Nine of the 80 untreated seeds were carried to the nest although none of the treated seeds were carried to the nest (Figure 3, Table S1). GLMM analysis revealed that untreated seeds were carried away significantly more than treated seeds (Table S2).
