Diversity of Pollinator Insects in Relation to Seed Set of Mustard (Brassica rapa L.: Cruciferae) (2007, background): “Similarly, abundance of pollinator insects increased during flowering season of the temperate grassland (Kandori 2002; Hegland & Todland 2005) and abundance of A.”
Phylogeny and Historical Biogeography of Geraniaceae in Relation to Climate Changes and Pollination Ecology (2008, background): “Thus, large bees and bumblebees are the best pollinators of Geranium in these habitats (Kandori 2002; Dlusskii et al. 2000).”
Bumble Bee Abundance in New York City Community Gardens: Implications for Urban Agriculture (2009, background): “…Hylaeus, Ceratina) also were abundant in these gardens (Matteson et al. 2008) and New York City parks (Yurlina 1998) but may be less efficient pollinators on a per visit basis because they carry less pollen and are less likely to come into contact with anthers and/or stigmas (Kandori 2002).”
Biodiversity, species interactions and ecological networks in a fragmented world (2012, background): “…phylogeny (similar roles of closely related species) and place of origin (e.g. native vs. exotic), which can influence pollination rates and species interactions (Fishbein and Venable, 1996; Kandori, 2002; Raine and Chittka, 2005), or whole pollination networks (Lopezaraiza-Mikel et al., 2007).”
Big bees do a better job: intraspecific size variation influences pollination effectiveness. (2014, background): “Better pollination by larger visitors has also been explicitly reported for other Geranium species (Kandori 2002).”
Why flower visitation is a poor proxy for pollination: measuring single‐visit pollen deposition, with implications for pollination networks and conservation (2013, background): “More recent studies have paralleled our own in comparing visitor PE for just one plant genus (Kandori 2002; Stoepler et al. 2012), reaching similar conclusions regarding problems with proxies, and reinforcing the value of SVD (or a near equivalent) as ameasure of effectiveness.”
