Interspecific pollen transfer: magnitude, prevalence and consequences for plant fitness

CL Morales, A Traveset - Critical Reviews in Plant Sciences, 2008 - Taylor & Francis
Interspecific pollen transfer (IPT) is one of the mechanisms underlying potential competition
among plants for pollinators, and it refers to movement of pollen between different plant …

A meta‐analysis of impacts of alien vs. native plants on pollinator visitation and reproductive success of co‐flowering native plants

CL Morales, A Traveset - Ecology letters, 2009 - Wiley Online Library
Alien plant species can alter pollinator visitation and, in turn, the sexual reproduction of
natives. Using a conventional and a phylogenetically controlled meta‐analytical approach …

New frontiers in competition for pollination

RJ Mitchell, RJ Flanagan, BJ Brown, NM Waser… - Annals of …, 2009 - academic.oup.com
Background Co-flowering plant species frequently share pollinators. Pollinator sharing is

Most studies of plant community assembly have focused on how the abiotic aspects of a
habitat (eg soil moisture or mineral composition) or direct interactions among plants in a …

Ecological impacts of invasive alien species on bees

JC Stout, CL Morales - Apidologie, 2009 - apidologie.org
We review direct and indirect impacts of invasive alien species (focussing on plants and
insects) on native bees worldwide. Although there is a rapidly growing body of research into …

Do alien plant invasions really affect pollination success in native plant species?

AL Bjerknes, Ø Totland, SJ Hegland, A Nielsen - Biological conservation, 2007 - Elsevier
A growing number of studies on naturally occurring plant species have shown that plant-
plant interactions for pollination vary from competitive to facilitative. In reviewing the seven …

Assessing bee species richness in two Mediterranean communities: importance of habitat type and sampling techniques

A Nielsen, I Steffan-Dewenter, C Westphal… - Ecological …, 2011 - Springer
The decline of bees has raised concerns regarding their conservation and the maintenance
of ecosystem services they provide to bee-pollinated wild flowers and crops. Although the …

The presence of a showy invasive plant disrupts pollinator service and reproductive output in native alpine species only at high densities

AA Muñoz, LA Cavieres - Journal of Ecology, 2008 - Wiley Online Library
Summary 1 Alien invasive plants possessing attractive flowers can affect the interactions
between native plants and their pollinators. The few studies conducted so far have reported …

Bees in disturbed habitats use, but do not prefer, alien plants

NM Williams, D Cariveau, R Winfree… - Basic and Applied …, 2011 - Elsevier
Alien plants form important interactions with flower visitors across many systems and are
especially likely to dominate these interactions in disturbed habitats where native plants are …
