昆虫授粉生态的研究

昆虫是重要的授粉者.昆虫授粉可提高农作物的产量和品质,给人类带来巨大的经济效益.在长期协同进化的过程中,授粉昆虫与显花植物在个体、种群、群落水平上通过相互作用形成一个复杂的系统,彼此之间存在着相互依存、相互促进、相互竞争、互惠共生等多种联系.在自然界,昆虫的授粉过程和授粉效率受到各种生物与非生物因子的影响.因此,开展昆虫授粉生态的研究,将有利于阐明昆虫授粉的机理和提高昆虫授粉的效率.

STUDIES ON THE POLLINATION ECOLOGY OF INSECTS

Insects are well known as pollinators. The pollination of insects can improve the yield and quality of farm crops, and then increase the income of farmers greatly. In the process of coevolution, an interacting system of living, competition and mutualism was developed between pollinating insects and flowering plants at levels of individual behavior of pollinators, population phenomena, and community-wide structure. The pollinattion process and efficiency of insects are often affected by a number of environmental variables, either biotic or abiotic, in natural e-cosystems. Studies on the pollination ecology of insects are therefore significant in order to elaborate the pollination mechanism and improve its efficiency.
