Species are often presumed to be apparent in nature, but practice they may difficult recognise, especially when viewed across continents rather than within a single site. Coalescent-based Poisson-tree-process (PTP) models applied fast-evolving genes promise one quantitative criterion for recognising species, complete with the estimates of uncertainty that required scientific method. Such methods face challenges discerning between widespread polytypic species and complexes closely related,...
Isolation between species, or taxa sharing a common lineage, depends primarily on the relative strengths of various reproductive barriers. Previous studies isolation orchids emphasized mechanical and ethological barriers in flowers species showing food and/or sexual mimicry. In this study, we investigated quantified series prepollination postpollination pink white forms Spiranthes sinensis sl, nectar-secreting complex. We generated ML trees based trnS-G matK to explore phylogenetic...
Morphological trait-matching and species abundance are thought to be the main factors affecting frequency strength of mutualistic interactions. However, relative importance in shaping interactions across environmental gradients remains poorly understood, especially for plant-insect mutualisms involving generalist species. Here, we characterised variation trait composition plant-Hymenoptera plant-Diptera four meadows an elevational gradient (2,725-3,910 m) Yulong Snow Mountain, Southwest...
Abstract Pedicularis is the largest genus in Orobanchaceae (>300) with many species co‐occurring and co‐blooming subalpine to alpine meadows Himalayas. Although it well known that different place pollen on parts of same bumblebee's body, thus reducing interspecific transfer, not whether post‐pollination components also contribute reproductive isolation (RI). In this study, we quantified individual strengths absolute contributions six pre‐ RI between three sympatric two pairs; gruina ×...
Abstract Species interactions, such as those between plants and pollinators, are known to be shaped by both evolutionary history ecological factors. However, little is about how multiple factors (e.g. phylogeny, phenology, abundance functional traits) interactively affect interaction patterns. Using a plant–bumblebee network comprising 2,428 interactions 29 plant species 12 bumblebee in the Himalaya–Hengduan Mountains, we tested for phylogenetic signal whether pattern was explained...
Abstract Anthropogenic activity can modify the distribution of species abundance in a community leading to appearance new dominant species. While many studies report that an alien plant which becomes increasingly change composition, plant–pollinator network structure and reproductive output native species, much less is known about become their communities. Euphorbia jolkinii Boissier ( Euphorbia, hereafter) has over‐grazed meadows Shangri‐La, SW China. During flowering season over 2 years,...
Urbanisation is increasing worldwide, with major impacts on biodiversity, species interactions and ecosystem functioning. Pollination an function vital for terrestrial ecosystems food security, however, the processes underlying patterns of pollinator diversity services they provide in cities have seldom been quantified. Here, we present a comprehensive meta-analysis, using 133 studies, effects urbanisation pollination. Our results confirm widespread negative diversity, particularly...
