This study models how bee grooming behavior changes pollen distribution on their bodies and increases pollen carryover to other flowers, enhancing both male and female reproductive success.

This study synthesizes data from 152 studies on angiosperm diversification using SSE models, finding that trait effects vary across clades and dataset properties influence results.

The study examines how joined anther cones in buzz-pollinated Solanum species affect pollen release and vibrational transmission during bee pollination.

The paper examines how the presence of easily accessible pollen sources affects bee visitation to buzz-pollinated Cyanella hyacinthoides, finding that visitation rates decrease with more accessible pollen and are influenced by petal color.

The paper compares vibration transmission in buzz-pollinated flowers with different anther arrangements, finding that tight anther packing leads to uniform vibration transmission, while loose arrangements result in higher displacement in non-focal anthers.

This study shows that both sexual and asexual invasive monkeyflower species in the UK rapidly adapt to local environmental conditions through different mechanisms.

This study examines thermal performance curves in native and invasive populations of Mimulus guttatus to test hypotheses about thermal adaptation during invasion.

The paper compares pollen dispensing schedules across buzz-pollinated Solanum species with different anther morphologies, finding associations between anther traits and pollen release dynamics.

The paper traces the global invasion of Mimulus guttatus, showing it originated from North America to Europe and the Southwest Pacific via bridgehead populations and admixture.

The paper examines the natural frequencies of stamens in Solanum species and compares them to bumblebee buzz frequencies, finding resonance may influence pollen release in some cases.

This study examines how vibrations travel through buzz-pollinated flowers, finding frequency conservation and amplitude amplification in floral structures.

This study compares vibration properties in Bombus terrestris audax during flight, defense, and floral buzz-pollination, finding floral vibrations have the highest frequency, velocity, and acceleration.

The paper tests the EICA hypothesis by comparing non-native Mimulus guttatus populations in the UK and ENA, finding UK plants better conform to EICA predictions than ENA plants.

This study finds no niche shift in a hybrid monkeyflower compared to its parental species in introduced ranges, suggesting hybridisation does not drive ecological niche change.

The study examines how bee and floral traits influence vibration characteristics during buzz-pollination, finding that bee species affects vibration metrics while plant species impacts transmission properties.
