The Challenge of Attracting Pollinators While Evading Floral Herbivores: Patterns of Fragrance Emission in Cirsium arvense and Cirsium repandum (Asteraceae) (2007, background): “…has been well studied by evolutionary biologists (Endler 1987; Ryan 1990; Zuk et al. 1998), but only recently has this concept been applied to plant reproductive ecology (Brody 1997; Gomez and Zamora 2000; Raguso 2001; Ashman 2002; Collin et al. 2002; Ehrlén et al. 2002; Leege and Wolfe 2002).”
The Ecology of Seeds: References (2005, background): “In Primula farinosa, individuals with longer scapes are more effective at attracting pollinators (Ehrlén et al., 2002).”
Effects of livestock grazing on pollination on a steppe in eastern Mongolia (2008, background): “Fourth, the vegetation was short and not diverse in the heavily grazed plots; consequently, pollinators could find flowers more easily than in the other plots (Ehrlen et al., 2002).”
Pollinator-Mediated Selection on Floral Display and Spur Length in the Orchid Gymnadenia conopsea (2010, background): “…species (Peakall and Handel 1993; O’Connell and Johnston 1998; Lortie and Aarssen 1999), and field experiments suggest that pollinator-mediated selection on plant stature is stronger in tall than in low vegetation in the rosette herb Primula farinosa (Ehrlén et al. 2002; Ågren et al. 2006).”
