-
Description
-
Individual plants in gynodioecious populations of Phacelia linearis (Hydrophyllaceae) vary in flower gender, flower size, and flower number. This paper reports the effects of variation in floral display on the visitation behaviour of this species' pollinators (mainly pollen-collecting solitary bees) in several natural and three experimental plant populations, and discusses the results in terms of the consequences for plant fitness.

Their responses and experiences of the author are summarized in this paper to provide a collection of tips, stories, topics for generating discussion, and general advice for getting a course going in a positive direction.
