Abilities of the Newly Introduced Apple Cultivars (Malus × domestica Borkh.) ‘Eden’ and ‘Fryd’ to Promote Pollen Tube Growth and Fruit Set with Different Combinations of Pollinations

Agronomy
Apple production in Western Norway faces challenges due to climatic constraints and varying phenology. It is essential for cultivars to adapt to regional ecological factors, while suitable pollinators are necessary for successful cultivation.

Seed Production and Pollinator Dependence in Native Wildflowers: Guiding Species Selection for Conservation Plantings

Ecology and Evolution
The diversity of plants and their animal pollinators is in decline due to anthropogenic pressures such as habitat loss, pesticide use, and agricultural intensification. Approximately 78% of angiosperms rely on animal‐mediated pollination, yet data on the

Visual attraction cues associated with tachinid pollination: insights from colour variation in Succisella microcephala (Caprifoliaceae)

Journal of Pollination Ecology
Pollination syndromes describe convergent floral traits linked to specific pollinator groups. While conceptually useful, the application of this framework to diverse insect assemblages, such as Diptera, remains challenging due to their functional ...

Thrips and Pollination Biology

, 1982
The role of thrips in pollination has been discussed in terms of the adaptive significance of the pollinator and the flower, with emphasis on some Compositae. Species packing, species dominance and succession as well as population build-up of thrips in flowers enable inter-and intraspecific competitions resulting in migration enhancing the ...
