Floral Trait Influence on the Foraging Decisions of a Fly Pollinator

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Flies foraging for floral resources provide important ecosystem services through the pollination of myriad angiosperms, including many crop species. However, the specific floral cues used by fly pollinators to locate and discriminate among floral rewards and the preferences they may have for specific cues remain poorly understood.

Flowering Plant Species Differ in Their Suitability for Orius strigicollis (Poppius): Effects on Plant Preference, Longevity and Oviposition Under Laboratory Conditions

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Flowering plant species can support pest control by providing resources for natural enemies. Polyphagous predatory species of the genus Orius occur in many parts of the world and are widely used as biological control agents. They feed on several common pest species and can additionally utilize plant resources such as nectar and pollen.

DNA metabarcoding reveals key floral resources for native pollinators in post‐fire landscapes [PDF]

Ecol Appl
Abstract Wildfires are a natural disturbance in dry ponderosa pine forest ecosystems, and are increasing in frequency and severity across western North America. The effects of wildfire on biotic and abiotic conditions have important implications for higher trophic levels, including native bees. We sought to quantify the responses of flowering plants to

Genetic, phenotypic, and ecological differentiation indicate a new cryptic and threatened species in the orchid genus Epidendrum from Alcatrazes Island, southeastern Brazil

Journal of Systematics and Evolution, EarlyView.
Epidendrum insularis occurs on the remote Alcatrazes Island in the southeastern Brazilian coast. The description of this new cryptic species was only possible by the joint use of molecular markers, reproductive experiments, flower morphometry, functional traits, and community analysis.

Intraspecific variation in an arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus affects a plant and an AMF community

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Mesocosm placement within the growing facility. Summary Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) show substantial genetic, trait, and functional variation within species. Whether this intraspecific variability has community‐level consequences for plant and AMF communities is unclear.

Floral bilateral symmetry: one axis, many details

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Dorsal petal morphological diversity among monkeyflower species. Summary Symmetry is a major component of floral diversity. Most flowers are radially or bilaterally symmetric, with bilateral symmetry (monosymmetry) having evolved repeatedly from radial ancestors. Since the identification of the dorsal identity gene CYCLOIDEA (CYC) in snapdragon, floral

Development and evolution of the Asteraceae capitulum

Asteraceae represent one of the largest and most diverse families of plants. The evolutionary success of this family has largely been contributed to their unique inflorescences, capitula that mimic solitary flowers but are typically aggregates of ...
