Ficus spp. are keystone tree species in tropical forest ecosystems and therefore, it is vital to
include them in tree planting for forest restoration programs. However, lack of knowledge …

In ecological communities, the relationships between interacting species are very complex,
resulting in nonlinear or even chaotic oscillations. Human activities, such as habitat …

When considering the tree of life, the fact that some lineages are much more taxonomically
rich than others suggests that rates of species diversification are highly variable. Explaining …

Fig trees (Ficus) are a species-rich group of mainly tropical and subtropical plants that are of
ecological importance because of the large numbers of vertebrates that utilise their figs for …

In some insect nursery pollination mutualisms, plant hosts impose net costs to uncooperative
“cheater” symbionts. These “sanctions” promote mutualism stability but their precise …

Recently, research interest has spread through the DNA barcoding for economically
important species of plants. In this work, the morphological characterization and DNA …

Agaonidae (the pollinators of fig trees, Ficus spp., Moraceae) are a distinctive family of
chalcid wasps with uncertain affinities within the Chalcidoidea. Chromosome numbers have …

The study aimed to identify the training needs of the farmers in the field of fig fruit breeding
and to determine the relationship between training needs and some variables. The study …

Interaksi antara pokok ara (Ficus) dan penyengat ara (Agaonidae) dikenali sebagai
mutualisme obligat. Ficus deltoidea (Moraceae) mempunyai taburan di seluruh selatan Asia …

Each Ficus species is generally pollinated by one host-specific fig wasp species, which
completely depends on the fig tree for reproductive success. However, there are some …
