[HTML][HTML] Mutualisms and (a) symmetry in plant–pollinator interactions
The majority of flowering plants relies on animal pollinators for sexual reproduction and
many animal pollinators rely on floral resources. However, interests of plants and pollinators …

Nature's most fruitful threesome: The relationship between yeasts, insects, and angiosperms
The importance of insects for angiosperm pollination is widely recognized. In fact,
approximately 90% of all plant species benefit from animal-mediated pollination. However …

Global distribution and evolutionary transitions of floral symmetry in angiosperms
Floral symmetry plays an important role in plant-pollinator interactions and may have
remarkable impacts on angiosperm diversification. However, spatiotemporal patterns in …

A signal-like role for floral humidity in a nocturnal pollination system
Previous studies have considered floral humidity to be an inadvertent consequence of
nectar evaporation, which could be exploited as a cue by nectar-seeking pollinators. By …

Floral pigmentation has responded rapidly to global change in ozone and temperature
Across kingdoms, organisms ameliorate UV stress by increasing UV-absorbing
pigmentation. Rapid ozone degradation during the 20 th century resulted in elevated UV …

Macroecological patterns in flower colour are shaped by both biotic and abiotic factors
There is a wealth of research on the way interactions with pollinators shape flower traits.
However, we have much more to learn about influences of the abiotic environment on flower …

The genome of the glasshouse plant noble rhubarb (Rheum nobile) provides a window into alpine adaptation
Glasshouse plants are species that trap warmth via specialized morphology and physiology,
mimicking a human glasshouse. In the Himalayan alpine region, the highly specialized …

Flower orientation influences floral temperature, pollinator visits and plant fitness
Effective insect pollination requires appropriate responses to internal and external
environmental cues in both the plant and the pollinator. Helianthus annuus, a highly …

Spatial monitoring and insect behavioural analysis using computer vision for precision pollination
Insects are the most important global pollinator of crops and play a key role in maintaining
the sustainability of natural ecosystems. Insect pollination monitoring and management are …

Too hot to handle: temperature‐induced plasticity influences pollinator behaviour and plant fitness
J Traine, Q Rusman, FP Schiestl - New Phytologist, 2024 - Wiley Online Library
Increased temperature can induce plastic changes in many plant traits. However, little is
known about how these changes affect plant interactions with insect pollinators and …
