2009 journal article

Effects of flowering plant density on pollinator visitation, pollen receipt, and seed production in <i>Delphinium barbeyi</i> (Ranunculaceae)

American Journal of Botany, 96(5), 912–919.

By: S. Elliott* & R. Irwin*

TL;DR: The effects of conspecific flowering plant density on D. barbeyi pollination and seed production are minor, and experimental manipulation did not affect pollinator visitation rate, pollen receipt, or seed production. (via Semantic Scholar)

The importance of interannual variation and bottom–up nitrogen enrichment for plant–pollinator networks

Oikos, 118(12), 1816–1829.

By: L. Burkle & R. Irwin*

TL;DR: The community structure of small-scale mutualistic networks may be relatively robust to short-term bottomup changes in the resource supply, but sensitive to variation in the opportunistic behavior and turnover of plant and pollinator species among years. (via Semantic Scholar)

Realized tolerance to nectar robbing: compensation to floral enemies in Ipomopsis aggregata

Annals of Botany, 103(9), 1425–1433.

By: R. Irwin*

2009 journal article

Nectar Sugar Limits Larval Growth of Solitary Bees (Hymenoptera: Megachilidae)

Environmental Entomology, 38(4), 1293–1300.

TL;DR: This study suggests that, in addition to pollen, nectarsugar concentration can limit solitary bee larval growth and development, and nectar should be considered more explicitly as a currency governing foraging decisions related to producing optimally sized offspring. (via Semantic Scholar)

Ecology and evolution of plant–pollinator interactions

Annals of Botany, 103(9), 1355–1363.

By: R. Mitchell*, R. Irwin*, R. Flanagan* & J. Karron*

TL;DR: This Viewpoint paper highlights the application of ecological and evolutionary approaches to two themes in pollination biology: (1) links between pollinator behaviour and plant mating systems, and (2) generalization and specialization inpollination systems. (via Semantic Scholar)

Sexual Development in <i>Lucilia cuprina</i> (Diptera, Calliphoridae) Is Controlled by the Transformer Gene

Genetics, 182(3), 785–798.

TL;DR: The results suggest that an autoregulatory loop sustains female development and that expression of M inhibits LctraAutoregulation, switching its splicing to the male form, shows that this sex determination system is not confined to Tephritidae. (via Semantic Scholar)

2009 journal article

Using an F<sub>2</sub>screen to monitor frequency of resistance alleles to Bt cotton in field populations of<i>Helicoverpa armigera</i>(Hübner) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae)

Pest Management Science, 65(4), 391–397.

TL;DR: A fluctuating but overall increase in resistance allele frequency was detected in the field populations of H. armigera in Qiuxian County from 1999 to 2005, and it is necessary to introduce Bt cotton expressing multiple Bt toxins and integrate this technology with other tactics for management of this key pest.

By: M. Guiney* & D. Andow*

TL;DR: In a small population of Karner blue butterflies in the Whitewater Wildlife Management Area (WMA) in Minnesota, it was determined that a maleKarner blue butterfly was still alive after 29 days of adult life, and its wing was marked with a Sharpie® permanent marker. (via Semantic Scholar)

Cry Toxins and Proteinase Inhibitors in Transgenic Plants Do Have Non-Zero Effects on Natural Enemies in the Laboratory: Rebuttal to Shelton et al. 2009: Table 1.

Environmental Entomology, 38(6), 1528–1532.

TL;DR: This rebuttal first addresses the deeper, fundamental questions raised by Shelton et al. (2009) about the value of meta-analysis and then rebut the core criticisms about the authors' statistical methods. (via Semantic Scholar)
