Tracing Species Boundaries Through Genomic Baits: Diagnostic SNP Panels for Genotyping Orchid Pollinaria. [PDF]

Evol Appl
ABSTRACT Orchidaceae is one of the largest angiosperm families, with extensive floral morphological diversity, complex pollination systems, and frequent hybridization, which complicate species delimitation. Target capture offers a scalable alternative to whole‐genome sequencing for phylogenomic and ecological applications, but operational thresholds ...

Bees, flowers and UV. [PDF]

Plant Biol (Stuttg)
Human‐invisible but bee‐visible UV patterns in flowers aid pollination by signalling to pollinators and protecting vulnerable DNA in pollen. ABSTRACT Ultraviolet light shining on flowers has various effects. In this review we assess functions of UV pigments and UV reflection patterns in flowers, including visual signalling by reflectance, fluorescence,

Life history induces markedly divergent insect responses to habitat loss. [PDF]

J Anim Ecol
This study pioneers the use of deep learning to rapidly assess over 22,000 Amazonian insects, revealing life history‐dependent winners and losers from forest loss. It shows that terrestrial insects decline while aquatic insects thrive, with body size influencing dispersal, offering key insights for biodiversity conservation in tropical fragmented ...

Phylogenetic history shapes the composition of floral scents in a specialized pollination mutualism. [PDF]

New Phytol
Summary Most studies of the chemical ecology of plant–pollinator interactions emphasize the role of pollinator‐mediated selection in shaping floral scent composition. Nevertheless, phylogeny may constrain the metabolic pathways underlying these profiles, thereby influencing the evolutionary trajectory of the emitted signals.

Pollination by Euglossine Bees [PDF]

Evolution, 1968
The relationships between some orchid flowers and male euglossine bees were first observed in Darwin's time (Criiger, 1865), but the peculiarities of these interactions have been recognized only within the last decade. Our knowledge of the relationships has increased greatly in recent years, especially through the efforts of Dodson (Dodson and Frymire,

Longevity of Euglossine Bees

Biotropica, 1985
The solitary or colonial Euglossini (Apidae) are important pollinators of many planes of low and middle elevation, neotropical forests. The bees are wary, rapid fliers, and capable of flying long distances. The tribe is perhaps best known for the fragrance-colleaing activities of males, particularly at orchid flowers (e.g., Dressler 1968, Dodson et al .

Radar tracking and motion-sensitive cameras on flowers reveal the development of pollinator multi-destination routes over large spatial scales [PDF]

, 2012
Central place foragers, such as pollinating bees, typically develop circuits (traplines) to visit multiple foraging sites in a manner that minimizes overall travel distance.

Observations on flower visitors to Bertholletia excelsa H.B.K. and Couratari tenuicarpa A.C. Sm. (Lecythidaceae) [PDF]

Acta Amazonica, 1985
Bees visiting flowers of Bertholletia excelsa. (Brazil Nut tree) and Couratari tenuicarpa were collected, their behavior described and the pollen found clinging to their dorsal thorax and stored on their legs was identified.
