Pollination Biology and Ecology (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781647400699)

Pollination biology or anthecology is the science concerned with the study of pollination and the association between flowers and pollinators. Pollination is an important process in plant reproduction that is essential to the production of fruits and seeds. The process is mediated through an interaction between flowers and pollen vectors. Pollinators (or pollen vectors) are insects, birds or mammals that move pollen from the anther to the stigma of a flower. This allows the process of fertilization to occur. The study of pollination ecology encompasses pollination studies at many levels, such as the effectiveness of specific pollinators of a plant species, properties of interactions occurring within communities of plants and floral visitors, etc. This book unravels the recent studies in the fields of pollination biology and ecology. Also included in it is a detailed explanation of the various interactions between pollinators and plants. This book is a vital tool for all researching or studying pollination ecology as it gives incredible insights into emerging trends and concepts.
