ISHS Acta Horticulturae 288: VI International Symposium on Pollination
THE POLLINATION SYNDROME OF ANEMONE CORONARIA L. ;AN INSECT-BIASED MUTUALISM |
| Author: | A. Horovitz |
| Abstract:
Plants, whose only food reward to flower visiting insects is pollen and which are strictly protogynous, cannot be pollinated by their foragers. East Mediterranean populations of Anemone coronaria, for which this situation holds, meet their reproductive needs by adopting a multiplicity of strategies. This enables them to function as an important pollen source for the nonpollinating insect fauna. | |
