TLDR
Flowers of C. albidus produce more pollen and nectar than the other two species studied, and attract more insects, especially those with higher nutritional requirements, but C. salvifolius and C. monspeliensis show some features that hinder xenogamy, and they have lower pollen-ovule ratios than C.Albidus.About:

The Families And Genera Of Vascular Plants
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a survey of eudicots: sapindales, cucurbitales, myrtaceae, and myrithaceae. And they propose a new genus named myrtium.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bateman's principle and plant reproduction: The role of pollen limitation in fruit and seed set
TL;DR: Using published data on 258 species in which fecundity was reported for natural pollination and hand pollination with outcross pollen, significant pollen limitation was found at some times or in some sites in 159 of the 258 species, suggesting that the pollination environment is not constant.

Floral Traits and Plant Adaptation to Insect Pollinators: A Devil’s Advocate Approach
TL;DR: Darwin’s book on orchids evoked a major revolution in botany and gave rise to an enormous literature on pollination ecology, and marked the starting point for a tradition in the practice of pollination biology.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pollen grains: Why so many?
TL;DR: Relationships among other floral traits of animalpollinated plants, including pollen size, stigma area and depth, and the pollen-bearing area of the pollinator may affect pollen number are examined to provide a model to examine how change in one trait may elicit change in other traits.

Flowering phenology, floral traits and pollinator composition in a herbaceous Mediterranean plant community
TL;DR: Results indicate that the observed patterns of visitor distribution among plants were most affected by pollen-nectar rewards.

The Principles of Pollination Ecology
Knut Faegri,L. van der Pijl +1 more
TL;DR: The principles of pollination ecology are studied in the context of beekeeping and their role in the evolution of honey bees.

Pollen-ovule ratios: a conservative indicator of breeding systems in flowering plants
TL;DR: The overall objective is to show that PIO's reflect the likelihood of sufficient pollen grains reaching each stigma to result in maximum seed set and suggest that PI O's are integrated with other facets of a plant's breeding system.

Handbook of experimental pollination biology
C. Eugene Jones,R. John Little +1 more
TL;DR: A book handbook of experimental pollination biology, which is so usual with the printed books, but many people sometimes have no space to bring the book for them, so they can't read the book wherever they want.
