As mentioned in the Introduction, numerous examples of co-pollination have been reported, not only in monoecious figs but also in dioecious figs23,24. Most of these examples were identified based on phylogenetic analyses of pollinator wasps alone17, with the exception of a few recent studies i...

The modules themselves operate in parallel; for example, allowing you to remember something while listening and looking around your environment. Each module's computations are massively parallel, meaning many small computational steps happening at the same time. For example, in retrieving a relevant fa...
the latter meaning that wild pollinators change crop rows or rows of trees more often than honey bees, thereby facilitating cross pollination (mason bees: Bosch & Blas, 1994; Vicens & Bosch, 2000; Javorek, Mackenzie, & Vander Kloet, 2002; Monzon, Bosch, & Retana, 2004 and bumble bees:...
She has a Bachelor of Science in Biology and a Master of Education. Sure, insects are pests, but we couldn't live without them. A major role of the insect is that of pollinator, meaning they transfer pollen from plant to plant (or sometimes within the same plant), which results in ...
cerana was much lower than in the wild bees. Compared with the four species of Andrena, Colletes gigas moved between plants more frequently. Given its large size, it also had the highest pollen load size, pollen removal and higher deposition rates, meaning it can essentially deposit more ...
Rafflesia flowers are sturdy, typically with five substantial tepals (undifferentiated petals and sepals) surrounding the sex organs in a central cup. Interestingly, individual flowers are unisexual, meaning that pollination can occur only if another flower of the opposite sex is simultaneously blooming...
