Seed dispersal is the movement or transport of seeds away from the parent plant. Common agents of seed dispersal include wind (anemochory), water (hydrochory), animals (zoochory), and mechanical means (autochory). Fungi are typically decomposers or pathogens and do not act as agents for the propagation of plants through seed dispersal; they are usually involved in the decay of organic matter or infecting plants.
