Plant Pollinator interactions in high temperatures
32° C, there
are severe implications
for yield and quality.
The plants, flowers, and pollination
Flower quality can also be reduced by factors other
than [...] environment or
other parts of the plants. Leaves can cool themselves through transpiration, while flowers cannot. For
this reason, better pollination is [...] important for flower visitation. The time taken for
thermoregulation at higher temperatures comes at
the cost of foraging, with negative consequences for
pollination
