Article Synopsis
- Floral traits like flower size and nectar/pollen rewards are crucial for attracting pollinators, but these traits can vary due to environmental factors and soil conditions.
- Research shows that diverse arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) can improve floral displays and rewards, leading to increased bee visitation, as larger flowers attract more bees.
- However, there's a trade-off, as enhanced flower size from AMF may reduce root colonization, indicating that soil microbial interactions significantly influence both plant traits and pollinator behavior.
