A novel method to measure hairiness in bees and other insect pollinators. [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2020 Hairiness is a fundamental functional trait in pollinator ecology related to thermoregulation and pollination effectiveness. Surprisingly, there is a lack of standard methods to measure this trait. We provide an effective method to quantitatively measure hairiness to contribute to filling an important gap in pollinator data bases and to improve our ...

Plant Biology, Volume 25, Issue 3, Page 396-402, April 2023., 2023 For orchids the entire inflorescence has a dominant role in the attractiveness of insects and the choice of the insect is not conditioned by the position of the flower. This implies that all flowers have the same possibility of receiving visits from pollinators. Abstract Inflorescence display size and flower position on the inflorescence play important

Floral traits and reproductive success variation among inflorescence orders in Eryngium maritimum
Plant Biology, Volume 24, Issue 2, Page 249-258, March 2022., 2022 Eryngium maritimum (Apiaceae L.) is a strongly entomophilous species that displays morphometric and reproductive differences among capitula located in different whorls, suggesting functional differences at intra‐individual level. Abstract Eryngium maritimum L. is considered a key species in dunes of the western Mediterranean. Although Northern European

Stable structural colour patterns displayed on transparent cellulose composite free-standing films [PDF]
, 2023 Natural structures can generate colours through various mechanisms, such as multilayers and dif- fraction gratings. For example, the colour patterns observed in the wings of insects result from transpar- ent solid films and are attributed to thin film ...

Non-Apis bee diversity in an experimental pollinator garden in Bengaluru – a Silicon Valley of India [PDF]
, 2020 Necessity of pollinators in ecosystem services and their decline has raised concern for their conservation both in farm lands and urban areas. With the aim of conservation of these pollinators, we initiated developing a pollinator garden at Yelahanka ...
