Journal ArticleDOI

Plant Reproductive Susceptibility to Habitat Fragmentation: Review and Synthesis Through a Meta-Analysis

TL;DR: A highly significant correlation between the effect sizes of fragmentation on pollination and reproductive success suggests that the most proximate cause of reproductive impairment in fragmented habitats may be pollination limitation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic consequences of habitat fragmentation in plant populations: susceptible signals in plant traits and methodological approaches

TL;DR: It is concluded that current conservation efforts in fragmented habitats should be focused on common or recently rare species and mainly outcrossing species and outline important issues that need to be addressed in future research on this area.
Journal ArticleDOI

A quantitative review of pollination syndromes: do floral traits predict effective pollinators?

TL;DR: The first systematic review of pollination syndromes that quantitatively tests whether the most effective pollinators for a species can be inferred from suites of floral traits for 417 plant species supports the syndrome concept.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reproductive success in fragmented habitats: do compatibility systems and pollination specialization matter?

TL;DR: It is suggested that no generalizations can be made on susceptibility to fragmentation based on compatibility system and pollination specialization, and that self-incompatible species can offset their expected higher vulnerability to fragmentation by being, on average, more pollination generalist than self-compatible species.
Journal ArticleDOI

Why do pollination generalist and specialist plant species show similar reproductive susceptibility to habitat fragmentation

TL;DR: Evidence that specialization of plant–pollinator interactions is asymmetric to observations that generalist pollinators are less affected by habitat fragmentation is linked to evidence that effects do not differ between plants with different degrees of specialization.
