Implications of the Floral Herbivory on Malpighiacea Plant Fitness: Visual Aspect of the Flower affects the attractiveness to Pollinators

open access: yesSociobiology, 2013
The Malpighiaceae family is species-rich and is abundant in Brazil. Malpighiaceae flowers provide oil and pollen to pollinating bees and serve as food for herbivorous insects, which damage the floral structures. Although common in the Cerrado, florivory

Floral trait similarity at the community‐level increases reproductive success suggesting facilitation through pollinator sharing

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
The ability of plants to attract pollinators is context‐dependent, influenced by floral traits, abundance, and resources from the plant community. Indirect interactions through shared pollinators, from competition to facilitation, may lead to varied reproductive outputs in plants, and the mechanisms behind these interactions remain to be fully ...
