Climate change affects precipitation patterns and seasonal temperatures and disrupts the
development and distribution of organisms. In the obligate mutualism between Ficus trees …

Insect pollination is the main strategy used by Angiosperm plants to transport pollen to
another individual. The interaction between entomophilous plants and their pollinators is …

Ficus fistulosa is a small dioecious tree of forest margins and old hedges. In Singapore both
male and female trees show intratree synchronization of fig production but little …

Fig trees (Ficus) are a species-rich group of mainly tropical and subtropical plants that are of
ecological importance because of the large numbers of vertebrates that utilise their figs for …

Flowering phenology is central to the ecology and evolution of most flowering plants. In
highly-specific nursery pollination systems, such as that involving fig trees (Ficus species) …

The phenology of plants reflects selection generated by seasonal climatic factors and
interactions with other plants and animals, within constraints imposed by their phylogenetic …

Year-round flowering is widely reported in fig trees and is necessary for the survival of their
short-living, specialized Agaonid pollinators. However, seasonality in both fig and leaf …

Pollinating insects are decreasing worldwide in abundance, biomass, and species richness,
affecting the plants that rely on pollinators for fruit production and seed set. Insects are often …

Fig trees (Ficus spp.) are of great ecological significance, producing fruits that are fed on by
more birds and mammals than any other plants in the tropics. They are pollinated by host …

We studied the phenology of 198 mature trees of the dioecious fig Ficus variegata Blume
(Moraceae) in a seasonally wet tropical rain forest at Cape Tribulation, Australia, from March …
