Current knowledge of flower visitors and pollination in the Oriental Region is summarised.
Much less is known about pollination than seed dispersal and the coverage of habitats and …

The role of frugivorous vertebrates as seed dispersers in tropical rainforests has received
much attention over the past 30 years (Estrada and Fleming, 1986; Fleming and Estrada …

Asian tropical forests are amongst the most diverse on the planet, a richness that belies the
fact that they are dominated by a single family of trees, the Dipterocarpaceae. Many other …

To evaluate the effect of flowering tree density on genetic variation in a dominant tree
species, genetic diversities and outcrossing rates of Shorea curtisii (Dipterocarpaceae) were …

We evaluated the degree of selfing and inbreeding depression at the seed and seedling
stages of a threatened tropical canopy tree, Neobalanocarpus heimii, using microsatellite …

Habitat fragmentation and changed land use have seriously reduced population size in
many tropical forest tree species. Formerly widespread species with limited gene flow may …

The genetic diversity within and among populations of Shorea leprosula and Shorea
parvifolia from Indonesia was investigated using amplified fragment length polymorphisms …

In the conservation and management practices of natural forests, sound reproduction and
regeneration form the basis of the maintenance and viability of the tree populations. To …

Outcrossing rates, pollen dispersal and male mating success were assessed in Dicorynia
guianensis Amshoff, a neotropical tree endemic to the Guiana shield. All adult trees within a …

In tropical forests, selective logging removes large trees that are often the main contributors
to pollination. We studied pollination patterns of the African mahogany, Entandrophragma …
