Eco‐Evolutionary Dynamics of Generalist and Specialist Pollinators Facing Plant Diversity Changes
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.We use a trait‐based eco‐evolutionary model to explore how changes in flowering plant composition affect interacting pollinators on short‐term ecological and long‐term evolutionary timescales. We find that evolutionary responses to landscape simplification, especially among generalist pollinators, may lead to a substantial loss of functional diversity ...
