Osmia spp. are excellent orchard pollinators but evidence that their populations can be sustained in orchard environments and their use results in increased fruit production is scarce. We released an Osmia cornuta population in an almond orchard and measured its population dynamics, as well as visitation rates and fruit set at increasing distances from the nesting stations. [...]

Currently, a global analysis of the information available on the relative composition of the floral scents of a very diverse variety of plant species is missing. Such analysis may reveal general patterns on the distribution and dominance of the volatile compounds that form these mixtures, and may also allow measuring the effects of factors such as the phylogeny, pollination vectors, and climatic conditions on the floral scents of the species.

Apple is considered the most important fruit crop in temperate areas and profitable production depends on multiple ecosystem services, including the reduction of pest damage and the provision of sufficient pollination levels. [...]

La polinización por animales es un proceso fundamental en la reproducción de las plantas con flores. En el ámbito educativo, esta temática rara vez se aborda con un enfoque en la interacción planta-polinizador, y su importancia es poco reconocida por los estudiantes. [...]
En aquest treball es desenvolupa una proposta didàctica per abordar la temàtica de la reproducció sexual a les plantes amb flors, posant èmfasi en el procés de pol·linització i en l'associació mutualista planta-pol·linitzador. [...]
Pollination by animals is a key process involved in flowering plants reproduction. In the educational context, this topic is rarely addressed from the plant-pollinator interaction point of view, and its importance is poorly recognized by the students. [...]

Pollinators show flower colour preferences but flowers with similar colours do not attract similar pollinators

Background and aims: colour is one of the main floral traits used by pollinators to locate flowers. Although pollinators show innate colour preferences, the view that the colour of a flower may be considered an important predictor of its main pollinators is highly controversial because flower choice is highly context-dependent, and initial innate preferences may be overridden by subsequent associative learning.

Extreme reproduction and survival of a true cliffhanger : the endangered plant Borderea chouardii (Dioscoreaceae)

Cliff sides are extreme habitats, often sheltering a rich and unique flora. One example is the dioecious herb Borderea chouardii (Dioscoreaceae), which is a Tertiary, tropical relict, occurring only on two adjacent vertical cliffs in the world. [...]
