Pollination decays in biodiversity hotspots [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2006
As pollinators decline globally, competition for their services is expected to intensify, and this antagonism may be most severe where the number of plant species is the greatest. Using meta-analysis and comparative phylogenetic analysis, we provide a global-scale test of whether reproduction becomes more limited by pollen receipt (pollen limitation ...
