Cost of early flowering and a compensation mechanism in Primula atrodentata

In high-mountain habitats, early-spring flowering plants often face pollination limitation and risk reproductive failure due to pollinator scarcity. Our st

OUP Academic
Lin-Feng Qiu et al. investigated the #BreedingSystem and #PollinationBiology of #ActaeaPurpurea and #ActaeaJaponica, determined that A. purpurea was primarily pollinated by #VespaBicolor, and #CumulativeNectarVolume could be a crucial factor in attracting V. bicolor.
