Summary The Grant‐Stebbins model predicts that a plant species encountering different pollinators across its range may undergo local adaptation and, subsequently, ecological speciation. We tested whether this could explain the origin of Aeschynanthus acuminatus (Gesneriaceae), a species phylogenetically derived from sunbird specialist ancestors.

Both diurnal and nocturnal pollinators are important in the desert plant Nerine laticoma. Abstract The evolutionary limits to generalization in plant pollination systems are often determined by trade‐offs in which adaptations to one set of flower visitors reduces the effectiveness of another set of visitors.

Pollination and plant reproduction in the Cerrado, the world's most biodiverse savanna
ABSTRACT The Brazilian Cerrado is a continental‐wide biodiversity hotspot and the most species‐rich savanna ecosystem in the world. The main aspect characterising this biodiversity is that the landscape is arranged as an intricate mosaic of different plant formations, including grasslands, savannas, and forests, each harbouring distinct but ...

Abstract The present opinion deals with the re‐evaluation of sucralose (E 955) as food additive and with the safety of a proposed extension of use in food category (FC) 7.2 ‘Fine bakery wares’. Based on the available data, no safety concerns arose for genotoxicity of sucralose (E 955) and its impurities and degradation products.
