Wind of change: new insights on the ecology and evolution of pollination and mating in wind-pollinated plants
Background The rich literature that characterizes the field of pollination biology has focused
largely on animal-pollinated plants. At least 10% of angiosperms are wind pollinated, and …

Intended and unintended consequences of genetically modified crops–myth, fact and/or manageable outcomes?
JR Caradus - New Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, 2023 - Taylor & Francis
Food and feed has been produced from genetically modified (GM) crops for 25 years. It is
timely to review whether this technology has globally delivered the expected benefits and …

Pollen limitation causes an Allee effect in a wind-pollinated invasive grass (Spartina alterniflora)
It is usually assumed that pollen availability does not limit reproduction in wind-pollinated
plants. Little evidence either supporting or contradicting this assumption exists, despite the …
