Nectar reward and advertisement in hummingbird-pollinated Silene virginica (Caryophyllaceae)

TL;DR: An association between primary and secondary floral attractants and hummingbird discrimination of floral features supports the concept that the floral traits of S. virginica reflect pollinator-mediated selection by the principal pollinator.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pollination and seed predation by moths on Silene and allied Caryophyllaceae: evaluating a model system to study the evolution of mutualisms.

TL;DR: Reviewing nursery pollination and host-plant interactions in over 30 caryophyllaceous plants, based on published studies and a survey of researchers investigating pollination, seed predation, and moth morphology and behavior found traits and patterns in both that are nonetheless consistent with the evolution of mutualism and merit further attention.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pollinator specialization and pollination syndromes of three related North American Silene.

TL;DR: Compared across the Silene species, divergent floral character states are consistent with increasing the attraction and/ or pollen transfer efficiency of their respective major pollinators, which suggests that the pollinators are past and/or contemporary selective agents for floral trait evolution in these three Silenespecies.
