Nature World News: A new study has found that plants reduce their seed production even if one of their favorite pollinators disappears. The study shows the complexity of the system. The study was conducted by researchers from Emory University and their colleagues, who found that loss of even one species of pollinators reduces competition and affects the floral fidelity which further leads to lower reproduction success in plants. Researchers focused on the interaction between bumblebees and larkspur wildflowers in...

High 2012 temperatures led to earliest flowering ever in eastern U.S

Their early blooming has the potential to disrupt the ecosystem, scientists say, but perhaps it could be a sign of plants' resilience. Last year, scientists from Harvard University, Boston University and the University of Wisconsin documented the earliest flowering season on record in the eastern United States....
