Finding the bees knees: a conceptual framework and systematic review of the mechanisms of pollinator-mediated facilitation

J Braun, CJ Lortie - Perspectives in Plant Ecology, Evolution and …, 2019 - Elsevier
Pollination facilitation is an indirect interaction whereby one plant species positively
influences the reproductive success of another plant species through pollinators. A formal …

Pollination outcomes reveal negative density‐dependence coupled with interspecific facilitation among plants

PJ Bergamo, N Susin Streher, A Traveset… - Ecology …, 2020 - Wiley Online Library
Pollination is thought to be under positive density‐dependence, destabilising plant
coexistence by conferring fitness disadvantages to rare species. Such disadvantage is …

Evaluating the effects of pollinator‐mediated interactions using pollen transfer networks: evidence of widespread facilitation in south Andean plant communities

C Tur, A Sáez, A Traveset, MA Aizen - Ecology Letters, 2016 - Wiley Online Library
Abstract Information about the relative importance of competitive or facilitative pollinator‐
mediated interactions in a multi‐species context is limited. We studied interspecific pollen …

Patterns and drivers of pollen co‐transport network structure vary across pollinator functional groups

LT Carneiro, JN Williams, DA Barker… - Journal of …, 2024 - Wiley Online Library
The patterns and drivers of pollen transport on insect bodies can have important
consequences for plant reproductive success and floral evolution; however, they remain little …

Fruit set is moderately dependent on insect pollinators in strawberry and is limited by the availability of pollen under natural open conditions

CM Menzel - The Journal of Horticultural Science and …, 2023 - Taylor & Francis
Modern strawberry (Fragaria× ananass a Duch.) cultivars are hermaphrodite and have fertile
flowers, with the anthers releasing viable pollen. Cultivars are self-compatible and do not …

Plant interactions shape pollination networks via nonadditive effects

G Losapio, MA Fortuna, J Bascompte, B Schmid… - Ecology, 2019 - Wiley Online Library
Plants grow in communities where they interact with other plants and with other living
organisms such as pollinators. On the one hand, studies of plant–plant interactions rarely …

New insights into plants co‐existence in species‐rich communities: The pollination interaction perspective

E Fantinato, S Del Vecchio, M Giovanetti… - Journal of …, 2018 - Wiley Online Library
Questions In animal‐mediated pollination, pollinators can be regarded as a limiting resource
for which entomophilous plant species might interact to assure pollination, an event pivotal …

Within-day dynamics of plant–pollinator networks are dominated by early flower closure: an experimental test of network plasticity

B Schwarz, CF Dormann, DP Vázquez, J Fründ - Oecologia, 2021 - Springer
Temporal variability of plant–pollinator interactions is important for fully understanding the
structure, function, and stability of plant–pollinator networks, but most network studies so far …

Flower colour within communities shifts from overdispersed to clustered along an alpine altitudinal gradient

PJ Bergamo, FJ Telles, SEJ Arnold, VLG de Brito - Oecologia, 2018 - Springer
Altitudinal gradients are interesting models to test the effect of biotic and abiotic drivers of
floral colour diversity, since an increase in UV irradiance, decrease of pollinator availability …

Experimental simulation of pollinator decline causes community‐wide reductions in seedling diversity and abundance

R Lundgren, Ø Totland, A Lázaro - Ecology, 2016 - Wiley Online Library
Pollinator decline can disrupt the mutualistic interactions between plants and pollinators and
potentially affect the maintenance of plant populations. However, there is still little …
