  4. 4. INDIVIDUAL TRAIT MATCHING OF BUMBLEBEES (BOMBUS) AND FLOWERS ALONG AN ENVIRONMENTAL GRADIENT

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för ekologi, miljö och geovetenskap

    Author : Johan Per Michael Svedin; [2022]
    Keywords : Arctic climate change; Bombus; Flower morphology; Plant-pollinator trait-matching;

    Abstract : Insect pollinators serve a critical role in maintaining plant biodiversity and are especially susceptible to changes within their environment. To study the possible effects of seasonal variation in temperature, as well as climatic temperature increase on the plant-pollinator community, the relationship between bumblebee and flowering plant traits along an elevational gradient, representing warming-induced changes in plant community, were examined.
