Big bees do a better job : intraspecific size variation influences pollination effectiveness [PDF]

, 2015
Funding: School of Biology, University of St AndrewsBumblebees (Bombus spp.) are efficient pollinators of many flowering plants, yet the pollen deposition performance of individual bees has not been investigated.

Biomass and mineral nutrient partitioning among self-pollinated and cross-pollinated fruit on the same strawberry plant

PLoS ONE, 2022
Pollen-parent effects on fruit size and quality have been found previously among competing self-pollinated and cross-pollinated fruit on the same Redlands Joy strawberry plant.

Amelioration of Defense System by Exogenous Citric Acid Application to Lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) Plant [PDF]

Horticulture Research Journal
Improper agricultural practices over the decades symbolize a serious problem for various crops productivity. Citric acid (CA) (C6H8O7) has demonstrated a superior role in abiotic stress resistance in plants.

The Economic Value of the Pollination Service, a Review Across Scales [PDF]

, 2009
Pollination is an ecosystem service that is essential to support the production of a wide range of crops. The service is increasingly under threat, as a consequence of among others habitat loss of pollinators and increasing use of pesticides. In order to

Benefits of Cross-Pollination in Vegetable Soybean Edamame

Journal of Pollination Ecology, 2023
Dependence on cross-pollination varies widely among wild and cultivated plant species. Even among crops that are less dependent on outcrossing, such as soybean (Glycine max L.), cross-pollination can improve fruit quality and commercial value. There is a

Cross-Pollination Planting Plans

EDIS, 2018
The document is about addressing the issue of self-incompatibility in citrus hybrid varieties, which results in poor fruit set and compromised productivity due to inadequate cross-pollination.

SNP markers reveal relationships between fruit paternity, fruit quality and distance from a cross-pollen source in avocado orchards

Scientific Reports, 2021
Cross-pollination can improve fruit yield, fruit size and nutritional quality of many food crops. However, we rarely understand what proportions of the crop result from self- or cross-pollination, how cross-pollination affects crop quality, and how far ...

Putting pollination quality into analyses of floral ecology: testing syndromes through pollinator performance [PDF]

, 2012
Over recent years, the extent of specialised and generalised plant-pollinator relationships, and the predictive powers of floral traits (often grouped into “pollination syndromes”) as indicators of the most effective pollinators of plant species, have ...

Pollination Compatibility and Xenia in Camellia oleifera

HortScience, 2020
Camellia oleifera, a major woody oil plant, has a low oil yield because of self-incompatibility. For commercial oil production, compatible pollen and optimal cross-pollination combinations are required.

Pollination ecology in the 21st century: key questions for future research [PDF]

, 2010
To inspire new ideas in research on pollination ecology, we list the most important unanswered questions in the field. This list was drawn up by contacting 170 scientists from different areas of pollination ecology and asking them to contribute their ...
