The evolution of plant–insect mutualisms
JL Bronstein, R Alarcón, M Geber - New Phytologist, 2006 - Wiley Online Library
Mutualisms (cooperative interactions between species) have had a central role in the
generation and maintenance of life on earth. Insects and plants are involved in diverse forms …

Do alien plant invasions really affect pollination success in native plant species?
A growing number of studies on naturally occurring plant species have shown that plant-
plant interactions for pollination vary from competitive to facilitative. In reviewing the seven …

The impact of an alien plant on a native plant–pollinator network: an experimental approach
ME Lopezaraiza–Mikel, RB Hayes, MR Whalley… - Ecology …, 2007 - Wiley Online Library
Studies of pairwise interactions have shown that an alien plant can affect the pollination of a
native plant, this effect being mediated by shared pollinators. Here we use a manipulative …

Drought, pollen and nectar availability, and pollination success
NM Waser, MV Price - Ecology, 2016 - Wiley Online Library
Pollination success of animal‐pollinated flowers depends on rate of pollinator visits and on
