Journal of Pollination EcologyPremise—Pollinator-mediated selection drives floral morphologies to converge on sets of traits deemed “pollination syndromes”. As a result of similarity due to common descent, pollination syndromes can be shared among closely related plants in cases ...

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.Genotype and cropping system influenced oilseed rape ecophysiological traits, including glucosinolate compounds (glucoraphanin, glucobrassicanapin, and butyl‐glucosinolates) and biomass, which were linked to Psylliodes chrysocephala larval infestation, with varietal effects stronger than faba bean companion planting.

Intercropping mitigates incidence of the oilseed rape insect pest complex
Pest Management Science, EarlyView.Intercropping reduces the incidence of the oilseed rape insect pest complex with a significant impact of the direct visual and physical disruption provided by the companion plant. Abstract BACKGROUND Oilseed rape (OSR, Brassica napus) is a major crop requiring numerous phytosanitary treatments.

Evidence for moth pollination in a rhinomyiophilous Erica species from the Cape Floristic Region of South Africa [PDF]
PhytoKeysContrasting pollination syndromes in closely related species suggest that floral trait divergence is associated with differences in pollination system, but empirical observations are required to confirm syndrome-based predictions.

Reproductive biology and nectar secretion dynamics of Penstemon gentianoides (Plantaginaceae): a perennial herb with a mixed pollination system? [PDF]
PeerJ, 2017 Background In many plant species, pollination syndromes predict the most effective pollinator. However, other floral visitors may also offer effective pollination services and promote mixed pollination systems.

Effect of climate, anther morphology and pollination syndrome on pollen availability in Penstemon
Journal of Pollination Ecology, 2023 Traditionally, pollen presentation is thought to be a function of pollinator type and visitation frequency. However, despite the repeated observation that pollen presentation is influenced by flower morphology and abiotic factors, these aspects have been

Selfing Can Facilitate Transitions between Pollination Syndromes [PDF]
The American Naturalist, 2018 Pollinator-mediated selection on plants can favor transitions to a new pollinator depending on the relative abundances and efficiencies of pollinators present in the community. A frequently observed example is the transition from bee pollination to hummingbird pollination.

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Niche partitioning is often considered an important mechanism promoting species co‐occurrence in species‐rich communities. As species richness increases, niche partitioning may lead to different niche structures, including increased packing of species niches when the ...
