Anemochory is defined as seed dispersal by wind. Common dispersal syndromes of anemochory are wing structures and brown or dull coloured seeds without further rewards.
Hydrochory is seed dispersal by water. Seeds can disperse by rain or ice or be submerged in water. Seeds dispersed by water need to have the ability to float and resist water damage.
Zoochory is the dispersal of seeds by animals.
Autochory is the process of fruit and seeds dispersal by means of some kind of physical expulsion, often explosively.
