Pollination Biology of the Muscadine Grape [PDF]

open access: yesHortScience, 2001
Fruit set in the muscadine grape (Vitis rotundifolia Michx.) depended on insect cross-pollination, although flowers were well adapted for selfing. Pollinizer cultivars produced about half of their optimal fruit set when selfed, but cross-pollination was needed to reach an optimal fruit set of 33.7%.

Exploring Nectar Biology To Learn About Pollinators

open access: yesThe American Biology Teacher, 2000
Bees, moths, birds and other animal pollinators are responsible for producing approximately 80% of all the fruits that we eat daily (Buchmann 1997). Since pollinators are necessary for the reproductive success of many flowering plants, these plants need to attract and reward their pollinators.
