High floral disparity without pollinator shifts in buzz‐bee‐pollinated Melastomataceae

New Phytologist
Summary Shifts among functional pollinator groups are commonly regarded as sources of floral morphological diversity (disparity) through the formation of distinct pollination syndromes. While pollination syndromes may be used for predicting pollinators, their predictive accuracy remains debated, and they are rarely used to test whether floral ...

Comparison of yield characteristics of Independence, a self‐compatible almond variety, as affected by presence of honey bee pollinators

Ecological Solutions and Evidence
Until recently, all the almond varieties grown globally have been self‐incompatible, a fact that drives the interdependent relationship between almond growers and the beekeepers that provide honey bee colonies for pollination.

Supplemental feeding of honey bees

California Agriculture, 1968
These results indicate that ratings of honey bee colonies based on bee numbers and brood area, were most useful in predicting the pollen-collecting activity by those colonies when the rating was done within 21 days, or one brood cycle, of the pollination
