Annotation:

For over twenty years, flower-visitation networks have been used to assess the effects of pollinator decline, linked to habitat loss, climate change and invasive species, on entire communities. However, most rely on flower visit frequency as a proxy for pollination; very few sample pollen from flower visitor's bodies or from stigmas and so do not include a quantitative measure of pollination success. Here, I add pollinator effectiveness (as single visit pollen deposition) into a traditional flower visitation network, creating a pollinator importance network that better evaluates the flower vis

Difficulties in pollen transfer have adversely affected seed production of hybrid onion (Allium cepa L.) in the United States. Six onion cultivars were examined for differential attractiveness to the honey bee (Apis mellifera L.). Honey bees clearly discriminated between the onion cultivars in both open plots and caged plots. Nectar secretion, nectar sugar concentration, nectar sugar composition, mectar potassium content, and flower phenology were correlated with honey bee visitation. Nectar secretion rates ranged from 0.54 to 0.84 ul per floret per day. Onion cultivars also demonstrated diffe

Prostanthera Labill. (Lamiaceae) is traditionally divided into section Klanderia (F. Muell.) Benth. and section Prostanthera based on floral characteristics that correspond to putatively ornithophilous or entomophilous pollination syndromes. To better understand these pollination syndromes and how they evolved, the phylogenetic relationships, floral morphology, and pollination of Prostanthera were investigated. Maximum parsimony and Bayesian phylogenies for 66 (~75%) species of Prostanthera were constructed using chloroplast (trnT-F, nth-rpl32) and nuclear (ETS) genomes. In all cases Prostam‘h

Annotation:

Ecological restoration allows for accelerated recovery of a degraded ecosystem’s biodiversity, function, and ability to provide ecosystem services. However, the issues of when active restoration is necessary and how restoration effectiveness should be measured are still subject to considerable debate. Here we evaluate plant-pollinator networks in actively and passively restored quarries, comparing structure and composition to a natural area representing the reference ecosystem, to determine which restoration approach holds higher effectiveness on the rehabilitation of this ecological process.

Habitat restoration is an important tool in reducing the current decline in biodiversity. To determine the success of restoration, ecologists have previously focused on species richness or on the presence of rare species; little is known of species interactions. This study examines both the potential of restored landfill sites to support pollinating insects and how flower-insect interactions can be used in determining successful restoration. These are important attributes of ecosystem function. Standard belt transects were used to record flowering insect pollinated plants and flower-visiting i

Cotton is a high-value commercial crop in Australia. Although cotton is largely self-pollinating, previous researchers have reported that honeybees, Apis mellifera, can assist in cross-pollination and contribute to improved yield. Until recently, use of bees in cotton had, however, been greatly limited by excessive use of pesticides to control arthropod pests. With the widespread use of transgenic (Bt) cotton varieties and the associated reduction in pesticide use, I decided to investigate the role and importance of honeybees in Bt cotton, under Australian conditions.

Like orchids, the complexity of flowers found in asclepiads (Asclepiadoideae, Apocynaceae) and the fact that pollen is presented as pollinaria, offers excellent opportunities to study various aspects of plant-pollinator interactions.

Colonizing plants often reproduce through self-pollination, or have highly generalized pollination systems, or both. These characteristics facili

The importance of European honey bees in improving fruit set, yield and fruit weight of kiwifruit on the central east coast of Australia was investigated. Field investigations were carried out using different bee saturations and different types of male pollen parents. These investigations confirmed the importance of honey bees in kiwifruit fruit set, yield and fruit weight. However, the results suggested that increasing bee activity alone may not increase pollination of kiwifruit by honey bees. Many factors need to be understood before introducing bees into the orchard. Bees were more effectiv

Diversos aspectos vêm sendo estudados com relação à introdução de novas variedades de mirtilo no Brasil. A polinização de culturas tipicamente de clima temperado em clima tropical representa um enorme desafio para adaptação dessa cultura no país. Estudos relacionados à biologia básica da reprodução e ecologia da polinização envolvendo abelhas nas variedades do tipo Southern Highbush, ainda são inexistentes no Brasil e serão importantes para disseminação do cultivo. Levando-se em consideração que um dos aspectos determinantes dos efeitos de plantas exóticas nas comunidades nativas é a forma com

Annotation:

California's almond industry, valued at $2.3 billion per year, depends on the pollinator services of honey bees, although pollination by other insects, mainly solitary wild bees, is being investigated as an alternative because of recent declines in the number of honey bee colonies. Our objective is to model the movements of honey bees and determine the conditions under which they will forage in less favorable areas of a tree and its surroundings when other pollinators are present. We hypothesize that foraging in less favor

As flower visitors, ants rarely benefit a plant, commonly disrupting pollination by deterring other flower visitors, or stealing nectar. This thesis examines three aspects of ant-flower interactions, focusing on the occurrence of floral traits that prevent disruption of pollination and a novel means by which ants may influence pollinator behaviour. To assess which types of plant species possess ant-repelling floral traits I carried out a survey of 49 Neotropical plant species. Around a third of these species were repellent to the common generalist ant Camponotus novograndensis (Formicinae). Th

Flowers’ colours are an essential element of their ability to attract visits from pollinators. However, the colours as they appear to human observers can differ substantially from their appearance to insect pollinators, and so it is essential to consider pollinator vision in any study of the ecology of flower colour. In this thesis I describe how I have overseen the development of an online database to provide accurate information on floral spectral reflectance measured without human observational bias. This resource allows a more accurate consideration of flower colours in future studies, and

This thesis presents an integration of in situ field studies and ex situ laboratory experiments to provide a deeper insight into the patterns and processes underpinning the reassembly of insect pollinator communities in post-mining Jarrah Forest restoration. Overall, this research highlighted the value of early successional patches and suggests that the habitat selection of some endemic insect pollinators is driven largely by their thermal tolerance, energetic requirements, and ecophysiology.
