The introduction of an alien plant is widely assumed to have negative consequences for the
pollinator‐mediated fitness of nearby natives. Indeed, a number of studies, including a …

Pollination facilitation is an indirect interaction whereby one plant species positively
influences the reproductive success of another plant species through pollinators. A formal …

Covering the major topics of evolutionary game theory, Game-Theoretical Models in Biology,
Second Edition presents both abstract and practical mathematical models of real biological …

Plantings in residential neighborhoods can support wild pollinators. However, it is unknown
how effectively wild pollinators maintain pollination services in small, urban gardens with …

Wild bees provide a free and potentially diverse ecosystem service to farmers growing
pollination‐dependent crops. While many crops benefit from insect pollination, soft fruit …

Insect pollination is a globally important ecosystem service, contributing to crop yields,
production stability and the maintenance of wild plant populations. Ironically, agriculture is …

Pollination is thought to be under positive density‐dependence, destabilising plant
coexistence by conferring fitness disadvantages to rare species. Such disadvantage is …

Abstract Information about the relative importance of competitive or facilitative pollinator‐
mediated interactions in a multi‐species context is limited. We studied interspecific pollen …

Pollination is a key ecosystem service for agriculture and wider ecosystem function.
However, most pollination studies focus on Hymenoptera, with hoverflies (Syrphidae) …

Biotic interactions in plant communities affect individual fitness and community dynamics.
Interactions between plants vary in space, over time and with organisational complexity. Yet …
