Butterflies and moths - agents of pollinator-mediated selection and species separation in the two closely related carnations "Dianthus carthusianorum" and "D. sylvestris" [PDF]
, 2009 Angiosperms represent the most diverse and dominant group of plant organisms. With more than 250’000 species worldwide they outnumber by far other plant groups like mosses, ferns or gymnosperms. Flowering plants conquered the world’s terrestrial habitats

Dufour’s gland analysis reveals caste and physiology specific signals in Bombus impatiens
Scientific Reports, 2021 Reproductive division of labor in insect societies is regulated through multiple concurrent mechanisms, primarily chemical and behavioral. Here, we examined if the Dufour’s gland secretion in the primitively eusocial bumble bee Bombus impatiens signals ...

Review: Pollination, Pollinated and Pollinators Interaction in Pakistan
Journal of Bioresource Management, 2014 The agriculture sector is important in the overall economy and export earnings of Pakistan. Pollination is an essential ecosystem service that depends on symbiosis between species, the pollinated and the pollinator. Animal mediated pollination contributes to the sexual production of over 90% species of modern angiosperms.

Factors Affecting Pollinators and Pollination [PDF]
Psyche: A Journal of Entomology, 2012 While it has been known for at least a decade that the colony numbers of the managed pollinator, the Western honey bee Apis mellifera, was on the decline, pollinator problemwas not well publicized until the Colony Collapse Disorder (CCD) further ravaged the honey bee population in the United States [1].

Insects, 2021 Classical biological control is an important method for controlling invasive alien weeds. Univoltine insects can be highly effective biological control agents of annual weeds because they are well synchronized with their host plant.

The promise of genomics in the study of plant-pollinator interactions [PDF]
, 2013 Flowers exist in exceedingly complex fitness landscapes, in which subtle variation in each trait can affect the pollinators, herbivores and pleiotropically linked traits in other plant tissues.

Scientific Reports, 2022 Annual plants allocate soil nutrients to floral display and pollinator rewards to ensure pollination success in a single season. Nitrogen and phosphorus are critical soil nutrients whose levels are altered by intensive land use that may affect plants ...

Effects of fire on pollinators and pollination [PDF]
Journal of Applied Ecology, 2016 Summary Increased incidence of landscape fire and pollinator declines with co‐extinctions of dependent plant species are both globally significant. Fire can alter species distributions, but its effects on plant–pollinator interactions are poorly understood so its present and future role in coupled plant–pollinator declines cannot be assessed.

Natural processes influencing pollinator health [PDF]
, 2022 Evidence from the last few decades indicates that pollinator abundance and diversity are at risk, with many species in decline. Anthropogenic impacts have been the focus of much recent work on the causes of these declines.
