The effects of pollinator diversity on pollination function

Ecology, 2022
AbstractPollination is a key ecological function of most terrestrial ecosystems. Decades of research on single‐trophic‐level communities, particularly plant communities, have helped to build the foundation of diversity–function theory. Yet as it stands, this theory appears to be less useful for intertrophic‐level functions such as pollination, as ...

Safeguarding pollinators and their values to human well-being [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 2016
Wild and managed pollinators provide a wide range of benefits to society in terms of contributions to food security, farmer and beekeeper livelihoods, social and cultural values, as well as the maintenance of wider biodiversity and ecosystem stability.

Pollinators and Pollination

2021
A unique and personal insight into the ecology and evolution of pollinators, their relationships with flowers, and their conservation in a rapidly changing world. The pollination of flowers by insects, birds and other animals is a fundamentally important ecological function that supports both the natural world and human society. Without pollinators to

Natural hazard threats to pollinators and pollination

Global Change Biology, 2019
AbstractNatural hazards are naturally occurring physical events that can impact human welfare both directly and indirectly, via shocks to ecosystems and the services they provide. Animal‐mediated pollination is critical for sustaining agricultural economies and biodiversity, yet stands to lose both from present exposure to natural hazards, and future ...

Pollination and Restoration

Science, 2009
Pollination services underpin sustainability of restored ecosystems. Yet, outside of agri-environments, effective restoration of pollinator services in ecological restoration has received little attention. This deficiency in the knowledge needed to restore pollinator capability represents a major liability in restoration programs, particularly in ...

Plant–pollinator networks: adding the pollinator’s perspective

Ecology Letters, 2009
Abstract Pollination network studies are based on pollinator surveys conducted on focal plants. This plant‐centred approach provides insufficient information on flower visitation habits of rare pollinator species, which are the majority in pollinator communities.
