Negative impacts of a vertebrate predator on insect pollinator visitation and seed output in Chuquiraga oppositifolia, a high Andean shrub
(Springer, 2004)
Studies on plant-pollinator interactions have largely neglected the potential negative effects of the predators of pollinators on seed output, even though anti-predatory behaviour of pollinators may affect visitation ...
Pollination Efficiency of Managed Bee Species (Apis mellifera and Bombus pauloensis) in Highbush Blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum) Productivity
(De Gruyter, 2020-06)
Understanding how bees use the resources provided by crops of massive flowering is essential to develop meaningful agricultural management of plans to maximize the potential of pollination service. We assessed the effect ...
The potential for indirect effects between co-flowering plants via shared pollinators depends on resource abundance, accessibility and relatedness
(Wiley, 2014-11)
Co-flowering plant species commonly share flower visitors, and thus have the potential to influence each other's pollination. In this study we analysed 750 quantitative plant–pollinator networks from 28 studies representing ...
Reproductive biology of Vasconcellea quercifolia A. St.-Hil. (Caricaceae), a moth-pollinated ‘highland papaya’
(Springer Wien, 2015-02)
Vasconcellea species, often referred to as highland papayas, are wild relatives of common papaya (Carica papaya) widely distributed in tropical America, with a preference for cooler climates. The genus deserves special ...
A network analysis of plant-pollinator interactions in temperate rain forests of Chiloé Island, Chile
(2009)
This study characterizes the structure of a plant-pollinator network in a temperate rain forest of Chiloé Island, southern Chile, where woody species are strongly dependent on biotic pollinators, and analyzes its robustness ...
Potential contribution to the invasion process of different reproductive strategies of two invasive roses
(Springer, 2017-02)
The type of reproductive system may be an important trait for the establishment and maintenance of populations of invasive plant species in new areas, as it can influence their demography and genetics. We studied the ...
Impact of invasive bees on plant-pollinator interactions and reproductive success of plant species in mixed Nothofagus Antarctica forests
(Sociedade Entomológica do Brasil, 2020-07-30)
Invasive social bees can alter plant-pollinator interactions with detrimental effects on both partners. However, most studies have focused on one invasive bee species, while the interactions among two or more species remain ...
Patterns of floral nectar standing crops allow plants to manipulate their pollinators
(Nature Research, 2020)
