Funded Activity Summary

Linking changes in plant-pollinator networks to plant reproduction. The project aims to investigate how human actions in agricultural landscapes affect the activity of pollinating insects and the consequence for the plants that rely on them for reproduction. The project seeks to reveal how the structure of plant-pollinator networks is related to the reproductive success of plants through the novel application of networks that describe patterns in species interactions. The knowledge gained from this study will enhance our ability to forecast the effects of insect declines for plant seed production in Australia and the world. The intended benefit is an improved capacity to identify vulnerable plant species and maintain pollination services in managed landscape for both wild and cultivated plant populations.
