DOI: 10.1002/ajb2.16170
Abstract: PREMISE Domestication of plant species results in phenotypic modifications and changes in biotic interactions. Most studies have compared antagonistic plant-herbivore interactions of domesticated plants and their wild relatives, but little attention has been given to… read more here.

Pollinator parasites and the evolution of floral traits
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "Ecology and Evolution"
DOI: 10.1002/ece3.4989
Abstract: Abstract The main selective force driving floral evolution and diversity is plant–pollinator interactions. Pollinators use floral signals and indirect cues to assess flower reward, and the ensuing flower choice has major implications for plant fitness.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.6060
Abstract: Abstract Ecologists are increasingly interested in plant–pollinator networks that synthesize in a single object the species and the interactions linking them within their ecological context. Numerous indices have been developed to describe the structural properties… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.8910
Abstract: Abstract Climate change is altering the world's ecosystems through direct effects of climate warming and precipitation changes but also indirectly through changes in biotic interactions. For instance, climate‐driven changes in plant and/or insect communities may… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.9347
Abstract: Abstract Beneficial insects provide valuable services upon which we rely, including pollination. Pollinator conservation is a global priority, and a significant concern in Ireland, where over half of extant bee species have declined significantly in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.9707
Abstract: Abstract The balance of pollination competition and facilitation among co‐flowering plants and abiotic resource availability can modify plant species and individual reproduction. Floral resource succession and spatial heterogeneity modulate plant–pollinator interactions across ecological scales (individual… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ecy.3359
Abstract: Generalist species are the linchpins of networks, as they are important for maintaining network structure and function. Previous studies have shown that interactions between generalists tend to occur consistently across years and sites. However, the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00442-020-04637-5
Abstract: Plant–pollinator network studies have uncovered important generalities in the structure of these communities, rapidly advancing our understanding of the underlying drivers of such a structure. In spite of this, however, it is still unclear how… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00442-021-05036-0
Abstract: The composition of plant-pollinator interactions-i.e., who interacts with whom in diverse communities-is highly dynamic, and we have a very limited understanding of how interaction identities change in response to perturbations in nature. One prediction from… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10841-020-00268-6
Abstract: Reclamation of abandoned mines to grassland may benefit non-target wildlife like pollinators by providing conservation habitat. Co-colonization of wildflowers and pollinators has been used to measure ecological recovery in other disturbed herbaceous habitats. Revegetated surface… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s11538-020-00735-w
Abstract: This paper considers plant–pollinator–herbivore systems where the plant produces food for the pollinator, the pollinator provides pollination service for the plant in return, while the herbivore consumes both the food and the plant itself without… read more here.
