| Περιγραφή: | Across ecosystems, the delicate synchrony between plants and their pollinators sustains organism abundance and diversity, food webs, and ecosystem resilience. Yet this synchrony is increasingly strained by a rapidly changing environment. Alterations in temperature, precipitation, and land use reshape species distributions, flowering times, and pollinator behaviour. As the pace of change accelerates, the once stable evolutionary partnerships between plants and pollinators are entering a period of unprecedented flux. Understanding the mechanisms, outcomes, and adaptive responses within these systems is therefore among the most urgent challenges in contemporary plant and conservation science. The Research Topic “Floral Adaptations and Pollinator Dynamics in a Rapidly Changing Environment” brings together an interdisciplinary Research Topic that explore how plants and pollinators interact, adapt, and possibly decouple under shifting ecological and climatic conditions. The contributing articles span ecosystems from tropical forests and temperate grasslands to alpine and Arctic regions, providing a broad biogeographic perspective on pollination processes. Together, they reveal how environmental gradients, climate change, habitat fragmentation, and evolutionary history shape floral traits, reproductive strategies, and network dynamics. |
