The most effective pollinator principle applies to new invasive pollinators
(Royal Society, 2018-06)
G. L. Stebbins' most effective pollinator principle states that when pollinators are not limiting, plants are expected to specialize and adapt to the most abundant and effective pollinator species available. In this study, ...

Factors affecting pollinator movement and plant fitness in a specialized pollination system
(2011)
The rate of pollen exchange within and among flowers may depend on pollinator attraction traits such as floral display size and flowering plant density. Variations in these traits may influence pollinator movements, pollen ...
Pollinator response to flower color polymorphism and floral display in a plant with a single-locus floral color polymorphism: consequences for plant reproduction
(Springer Tokyo, 2012-03)
Variation in flower color, particularly polymorphism, in which two or more different flower color phenotypes occur in the same population or species, may be affected or maintained by mechanisms that depend on pollinators. ...
Impacts of honeybee density on crop yield: A meta-analysis
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2019-02-03)
1. There is increasing recognition that pollination deficits are limiting crop yields world-wide. However, management strategies for optimal insect pollination are still unclear for most crops. Current management focuses ...
Quantity versus quality: identifying the most effective pollinators of the hummingbird-pollinated Vriesea rodigasiana (Bromeliaceae)
(Springer WienWienAustria, 2013)
Reproductive assurance weakens pollinator-mediated selection on flower size in an annual mixed-mating species
(Oxford University Press, 2019-02)
Background and Aims In animal-pollinated plants, direct and indirect selection for large and small flowers in predominantly outcrossing and selfing species, respectively, is a common consequence of pollen limitation (PL). ...
Temporal variation in pollination services to Cucurbita moschata is determined by bee gender and diversity
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2018-11)
It has been proposed that species-rich insect communities and species turnover across landscapes enhance the pollination efficiency of crops through complementarity, where both the dominant and less abundant species ...
Assessing the impact of the invasive buff-tailed bumblebee (Bombus terrestris) on the pollination of the native Chilean herb Mimulus luteus
(Springer, 2013-06-18)
The arrival of exotic pollinators to new habitats may introduce new patterns of floral preference and foraging behavior that modify the structure of the resident plant-pollinator community. The aim of this paper is to ...
