Patterns and drivers of pollen co‐transport network structure vary across pollinator functional groups
The patterns and drivers of pollen transport on insect bodies can have important
consequences for plant reproductive success and floral evolution; however, they remain little …

Reflections on, and visions for, the changing field of pollination ecology
Since the launch of Ecology Letters in 1998, the field of Pollination Ecology has changed
considerably in its focus. In this review, we discuss the major discoveries across the past two …

Traits and impacts of introduced species: a quantitative review of meta-analyses
Despite significant growth in the information on introduced species (NIS), agreement on their
comparative fitness and effects on native (NAT) communities is heterogeneous. Hypotheses …

No consistent pollinator‐mediated impacts of alien plants on natives
JA Charlebois, RD Sargent - Ecology Letters, 2017 - Wiley Online Library
The introduction of an alien plant is widely assumed to have negative consequences for the
pollinator‐mediated fitness of nearby natives. Indeed, a number of studies, including a …

Pollen on stigmas as proxies of pollinator competition and facilitation: complexities, caveats and future directions
Background Pollen transfer via animals is necessary for reproduction by~ 80% of flowering
plants, and most of these plants live in multispecies communities where they can share …

Pollen transfer networks reveal alien species as main heterospecific pollen donors with fitness consequences for natives
The ecological dynamics of co‐flowering communities are largely mediated by pollinators.
However, current understanding of pollinator‐mediated interactions primarily relies on how …

Experimental species removal reveals species contributions to positive pollinator‐mediated reproductive interactions
Pollinator‐mediated reproductive interactions among co‐flowering plant species provide a
canonical example of how biotic factors may contribute to species coexistence, yet we lack …
