Living Away From Specialized Pollinators: The Pollination System of Cieba Pentandra in the Yucatan Peninsula. [PDF]
Ecol EvolThe pollination system of C. pentandra was addressed. This system was highly generalized. ABSTRACT Plant‐pollinator systems can exist along the gradient from extreme specialization to extreme generalization. Theoretical work predicts that high pollinator reliability may lead to specialized pollination systems, while pollinator unpredictability may ...
