Abstract
► Seed rain is critical for forest recovery after slash-and-burn agriculture. ► We assessed successional shifts in seed rain in the highly fragmented Atlantic forest. ► Large-seeded species were surprisingly underrepresented throughout the chronosequence. ► This may reduce forest resilience and its ability to provide ecosystem services.
