Single pollinator species losses reduce floral fidelity and plant reproductive function.
PNAS, 110(32): 13044-13048
Most biodiversity-functioning relationships predict relatively rapid saturation of functioning with diversity. In this work we showed that removing even a single species can have negative functional consequences, driven by behavioral plasticity in the remaining species.
