Testing how antagonistic interactions impact the robustness of plant-pollinator networks
Given ongoing pollinator declines, it is important to understand the dynamics of linked extinctions of plants driven by pollinator extinctions. Topological robustness models focused on this question suggest relatively high robustness of plant species to ...

Pollinator parasites and the evolution of floral traits
The main selective force driving floral evolution and diversity is plant–pollinator interactions. Pollinators use floral signals and indirect cues to assess flower reward, and the ensuing flower choice has major implications for plant fitness. While many

Plant-pollinator interactions in East Asia: a review
Pollination studies in East Asia have been developing rapidly in recent decades. East Asia may provide important information on many aspects of plant-pollinator interactions because of the rich fauna and flora and highly heterogeneous environments that ...

The effects of the decline of a keystone plant species on a dune community plant-pollinator network
Ecological communities are maintained through species interactions, and the resilience of species interactions is critical to the persistence of natural communities.

Critic's Choice Essay - Take time to watch, not just smell the wildflowers!
Although plant-pollinator interactions between orchids and bees in the tropics may seem more interesting than those closer to home, Oklahoma is full of fascinating plant-pollinator interactions and mechanisms.

Specialization of plant-pollinator interactions increases with temperature at Mt. Kilimanjaro. [PDF]
AbstractAimSpecies differ in their degree of specialization when interacting with other species, with significant consequences for the function and robustness of ecosystems. In order to better estimate such consequences, we need to improve our understanding of the spatial patterns and drivers of specialization in interaction networks.MethodsHere, we ...

Molecular mechanisms of mutualistic and antagonistic interactions in a plant–pollinator association [PDF]
Many insects metamorphose from antagonistic larvae into mutualistic adult pollinators, with reciprocal adaptation leading to specialized insect-plant associations. It remains unknown how such interactions are established at molecular level. Here we assemble high-quality genomes of a fig species, Ficus pumila var.
