How do peach seeds disperse?

I know the pip/pip is inside the peach, but I still don%26#039;t know how it gets spread (i.e. in the wind, carried by birds, etc)

How do peach seeds disperse?
Peaches, with their sweet, fleshy outer layer, attract the attention of animals as a food, and the plant population benefits from the resulting dispersal of its seeds. The endocarp (pit or stone) is often swallowed, passing through the digestive tract, and returned to the soil in feces with the seed inside unharmed; sometimes it is dropped after the fleshy part is eaten.
Reply:I assume that the seed gets carried around by animals that eat the peach and swallow the seed (dispersed by poop, in other words, just like berries).





People probably disperse most of the peach seeds in modern times, since we carry them away to plant new trees elsewhere. And bears can carry off the fruit to eat elsewhere, even if they don%26#039;t swallow the pit.
Reply:Hi,





Heavy fruits can%26#039;t be dispersed by the wind. Animals are required for that (zoochory, see ref above) and eat the edible part of the fruit.
