About 90% of flowering plants rely on animals to transfer their pollen and optimize reproduction, making pollination one of ...

Mutualistic interactions are mutually beneficial species interactions. Plant-pollinator mutualisms are particularly important, and involve nearly 170,000 plant and 200,000 animal species.

Pollinators are animals that help to transport pollen from one location to another in the plant reproduction process.

For some plants, the process of pollination is the work of the wind and rain. In other cases, flowers just pollinate themselves. But many species have evolved to get insects and other animals to do ...

Pollination is, however, a fundamental process for the survival of our ecosystems. Nearly 90% of the world’s wild flowering plant species depend, entirely, or at least in part, on animal ...

Almost 90% of wild plants and 75% of leading global crops depend on animal pollination. One out of every three mouthfuls of our food depends on pollinators such as bees. Crops that depend on ...

Cross-pollination: The pollen grain lands on a different flower to the one it originated from. As plants cannot move like animals they must adopt a different method of transferring these pollen ...

Pollinators are animals that help to transport pollen from one location to another in the plant reproduction process. Pollination is crucial to our well-being and to the survival of ecosystems.
