Reproductive ecology of the bird-pollinated Nicotiana glauca across native and introduced ranges with contrasting pollination environments
Introduced plants become decoupled from their usual pollinators and by relying on resident
pollinator species or other reproductive strategies become established in new areas, spread …

Is variation in flower shape and length among native and non-native populations of Nicotiana glauca a product of pollinator-mediated selection?
Due to drastic changes in pollinators between native and invaded habitats, we might expect
that pollinator-mediated selection on floral traits of alien plants differ from that in their native …
