Assembling the Tree of the Monocotyledons: Plastome Sequence Phylogeny and Evolution of Poales1 (2010, background): “…of such structures in wind-pollinated taxa, and the possibility that the presence of petals and/or sepals, especially large ones, might interfere with the arrival of wind-borne pollen to stigmatic surfaces (see Linder, 1998; Culley et al., 2002; Linder & Rudall, 2005; Friedman & Barrett, 2008).”
The macroecology of animal versus wind pollination: ecological factors are more important than historical climate stability (2016, positive): “Wind pollination is currently understood to be a reproductive strategy that evolves when pollinators become unpredictable or unavailable (Barrett 1996; Culley et al. 2002; Friedman and Barrett 2009).”
Advances in flowering phenology across the Northern Hemisphere are explained by functional traits (2018, background): “Insect pollination is negatively influenced by mismatching insect phenology (Culley et al., 2002; Lloyd, 1979).”
Plant functional connectivity – integrating landscape structure and effective dispersal (2017, positive): “The dispersal of pollen by wind is thought to have evolved such that pollen ﬂ ow is facilitated where pollen or pollinator limitation is a potential issue, such as in areas with sparse plant occurrences (Culley, Weller & Sakai 2002).”
Patterns of plant traits in annual vegetation of man-made habitats in central Europe (2006, background): “They document that newly created habitats are more easily colonized by plants that do not depend on mutualistic relationships with other organisms, such as insect pollinators (Whittaker et al., 1989; Prach and Pyšek, 1999; Ecke and Rydin, 2000; Culley et al., 2002).”
Progress in understanding pollination systems in New Zealand (2005, background): “Pollinator spectra for many plant species range across orders of insects (beetles, flies, bees, butterflies, and moths), classes of animals (insects, birds, mammals) (Herrera 1996; Ollerton 1996, 1998; Waser et al. 1996; Waser 1998, 2001), and pollination agents (wind, animal) (Culley et al. 2002).”
Forget-me-not: Complex floral displays, inter-signal interactions, and pollinator cognition (2011, background): “communicative function has shaped multiple floral traits: wind-pollinated flowers, even those derived from animal-pollinated ancestors, generally produce smaller flowers that are usually unscented, unpatterned, and drab in color (Ackerman, 2000; Culley et al., 2002).”
The Ancestral Ecology of Angiosperms: Emerging Perspectives from Extant Basal Lineages (2003, background): “Ascarina and Hedyosmum also show a shift from insect to wind pollination (Endress 2001), a trait that may have evolved after the ability to exploit more open habitats (Culley et al. 2002; Doyle et al., in press).”
Insect pollinators collect pollen from wind‐pollinated plants: implications for pollination ecology and sustainable agriculture (2018, background): “Most windpollinated plants have a very high pollen-to-ovule ratio and limited pollen viability compared to animal-pollinated plants (Ackerman, 2000; Culley et al., 2002) and many wind-pollinated species may be pollen-limited, especially in fragmented habitats (Koenig & Ashley, 2003; Davis et al.,…”
The influence of pollinator abundance on the dynamics and efficiency of pollination in agricultural Brassica napus: implications for landscape‐scale gene dispersal (2006, background): “Previous studies have demonstrated that certain plant species are pollinated by both wind and animals (Mahy, De Sloover & Jacquemart 1998; Tamura & Kudo 2000; Culley, Weller & Sakai 2002 ) but controlled comparisons of the efficiency these vectors have not, to our knowledge, been made previously.”
The Evolution of Mutualistic Dependence (2020, background): “…of animal dispersers, although probably at a very low level), (b) by an intrinsic trait (e.g., self-fertilization, hence no obligate reliance on a pollinator), or (c) by an interaction of the two [e.g., pollination aided by wind and intrinsic traits in some plant species (Culley et al. 2002)].”
Pollen Limitation of Plant Reproduction: Pattern and Process (2005, background): “Similarly, plants pollinated by biotic pollinators are usually considered to be more specialized than those pollinated by abiotic 486 KNIGHT ET AL. vectors (Culley et al. 2002).”
A Phylogenetic Analysis of the Evolution of Wind Pollination in the Angiosperms (2008, background): “Keywords: anemophily, comparative analysis, correlated evolution, ecological correlates, morphological correlates, pollination.”
Plant traits co-vary with altitude in grasslands and forests in the European Alps (2010, background): “Moreover, anemophily would be advantageous in alpine grasslands because of the open structure of grasslands (Culley et al. 2002).”
On the Relationship between Pollen Size and Genome Size (2010, background): “grain size in species that use insect dispersal [5–7].”
