  • At the species level, the same study [ 1 ] showed that the Bavius Blue, Pseudophilotes bavius forms a sister clade to the rest of Pseudophilotes , which is also supported by its association to Salvia (Lamiaceae), whereas species in the remaining clades mainly feed on Thymus (Lamiaceae).

  • When phytophagous insects lay their eggs on many host species (polyphagy), adult females do not select all hosts equally. (skinscanapp.com)
  • Host plant choice is a complex task for herbivorous insects comprising the integration of intrinsic (e.g. innate preferences, behavioural plasticity, larval mobility) and extrinsic factors (e.g. plant suitability, natural enemies, competitors). (skinscanapp.com)
  • RESULTS: Our results showed that most species are self-compatible, but the degree of pollinator dependence varies. (bvsalud.org)
  • CONCLUSIONS: The cumulative findings of this study demonstrate how pollinator dependence is influenced by breeding system, and suggest that pollinator visitation is consistently high for species exhibiting high pollinator dependence but varies across species exhibiting low pollinator dependence.

  • Conclusions Categorization of the species studied according to their impact on invaded communities This study focused on neophytes, species introduced after 1500 A.D., because their impact on native vegetation is higher and more obvious than that of archaeophytes, introduced before that date, due to considerable invasion dynamics and relatively short residence time (Pyšek et al. (nusl.cz)
  • Impatiens glandulifera had a miniscule impact on species diversity and composition, both in the removal experiment and comparative study (Chapter I). This small impact is likely to be associated with this annual species' lower competitive strength, which has a modest root system and forms stands that are not homogeneous in terms of cover.

  • Moreover, the character of communities in which I. glandulifera invades, mostly riparian nitrophilous vegetation, does not provide opportunities for competitively weak species even if they are not invaded. (nusl.cz)
  • Specifically, species exhibiting high pollinator dependence received frequent visits from pollinators, while species exhibiting low pollinator dependence either received frequent visits from pollinators (and received high amounts of xenogamous pollen) or infrequent visits from pollinators (and received significantly lower amounts of xenogamous pollen).

  • This vegetation was supported by frequent fire events which suppressed invading woody species and stimulated the growth of grass and forbs. (pdfslide.net)
