Earlier flowering did not alter pollen limitation in an early flowering shrub under short-term experimental warming [PDF]
In animal pollinated plants, phenological shifts caused by climate change may have important ecological consequences. However, no empirical evidence exists at present on the consequences that flowering phenology shifts have on the strength of pollen ...

A review of European studies on pollination networks and pollen limitation, and a case study designed to fill in a gap. [PDF]
Anthropogenic environmental change disrupts interactions between plants and their animal pollinators. To assess the importance of different drivers, baseline information is needed on interaction networks and plant reproductive success around the world ...

Global meta-analysis shows that threatened flowering plants have higher pollination deficits [PDF]
Most flowering plant species rely on animal pollinators to reproduce, but insufficient pollen receipt, or pollen limitation, commonly occurs and is mediated by plant traits.

Influence of pollen limitation and inbreeding depression in the maintenance of incomplete dichogamy in Salvia elegans. [PDF]
The widespread presence of incomplete dichogamy (i.e., partial separation in time between male and female phases) in flowering plants is a long‐standing question in floral evolution.

Functional role of long-lived flowers in preventing pollen limitation in a high elevation outcrossing species. [PDF]
We asked whether an expected elevation reduction in flower visitation rates is compensated by long-lived flowers in the high Andean geophyte, Rhodolirium montanum.

Herbivory and pollen limitation at the upper elevational range limit of two forest understory plants of eastern North America. [PDF]
Studies of species' range limits focus most often on abiotic factors, although the strength of biotic interactions might also vary along environmental gradients and have strong demographic effects.

Rapid climate change in the Arctic may increase sexual reproduction in plants because of changes in both abiotic factors, such as temperature, and biotic factors, such as pollination.
