There is a growing realization that ecological interactions take place at many scales, from
acorns to forests, and that formerly overlooked community members, particularly microbes …

While pollinators and leaf herbivores have been a focus of research for decades, floral
antagonists have been studied significantly less. Since floral antagonists can be as common …

Brood pollination mutualisms—interactions in which specialized insects are both the
pollinators (as adults) and seed predators (as larvae) of their host plants—have been …

There is increasing world‐wide concern about the impact of the introduction of exotic
species on ecological communities. Since many exotic plants depend on native pollinators …

Insect pollinators acquire microorganisms when they visit flowers for nutrients. The
interactions that occur at the floral interface are complex with three participants–pollinators …

For the vast majority of higher plants, animal-mediated pollination is essential for
reproduction by seed. This paper discusses threats to plant-pollinator interaction including …

The flower is the hallmark of angiosperms and its evolution is key to their diversification. As
knowledge of ecological interactions between flowers and their microbial communities (the …

Plants interact with many visitors who consume a variety of plant tissues. While the
consequences of herbivory to leaves and shoots are well known, the implications of florivory …

Though we are learning more about the diversity, dynamics, and importance of phyllosphere
microbiota, we have only modest knowledge about the microorganisms that specifically …
