1. Once neglected, the role of facilitative interactions in plant communities has received
considerable attention in the last two decades, and is now widely recognized. It is timely to …

The analysis of size ratios of coexisting species has been a major focus in evolutionary
ecology for more than three decades. The idea that body size differences follow empirical" …

Experimental evidence for positive interactions, or facilitation, among plants has increased
markedly during the last 10 years. Experiments documenting facilitation have been …

The collapse of the ubiquitous honey bee population during the past 20 years has caused a
pollination vacuum for many crops. Surveys and grower experience indicate that a crisis …

Pollination ecology has been a fast growing field since the 1960s. A previous review by
Baker & Hurd (18) together with books (77, 84, 220, 221,244, 264) and various symposia (eg …

Most ecologists are not card-carrying members of either individualistic or interdependent
guilds, but our perception of plant community organization, and the way we conduct …

1 Multiple-species floral displays have been hypothesized to facilitate pollination by
attracting a greater number and/or diversity of pollinators. Here I present experimental …

Individuals of some species of pollinating insects tend to restrict their visits to only a few of
the available plant species, in the process bypassing valuable food sources. The question of …

The study of phenological aspects of plants involves the observation, recording and
interpretation of the timing of their life history events. This review considers the phenology of …
