对昆虫授粉效率的大多数估计都是基于肉眼观察。然而,昆虫的行为往往太快,无法以这种方式进行充分分析。在这里,我们演示了使用高速摄像机来分析细尺度的行为ofMacroglossum pyrrhosticta,木蜂apericulata,和凤蝶dehaani当访问Clerodendrum aperictomum。传粉者物种之间的细尺度花蜜饮用时间、与花粉囊和/或柱头接触的次数以及身体部位与花粉囊和/或柱头接触的频率存在显着差异。不同传粉者的传粉效率不同。此外,M. pyrrhostictamade与花药和/或柱头的接触次数最少,即使它表现出最高的访问频率。这些结果表明,从快速访花行为的角度来看,授粉动态不同的传粉者物种,访花和授粉率不相等。
Most estimations of the pollination efficiency of insects have been based on observation by the naked human eye. However, insect behaviors are often too rapid to analyze sufficiently this way. Here we demonstrate the use of high-speed cameras to analyze the fine-scale behaviors ofMacroglossum pyrrhosticta,Xylocopa appendiculata, andPapilio dehaaniiwhen visitingClerodendrum trichotomum. The fine-scale nectar drinking time, number of contacts with anthers and/or stigmas, and frequencies of body part contact with anthers and/or stigmas differed significantly among pollinator species. Pollination efficiency was not equal among pollinators. In addition,M. pyrrhostictamade the least number of contacts with anthers and/or stigmas even though it showed the highest visitation frequency. These results demonstrate that when examined from the viewpoint of rapid visitation behaviors, pollination dynamics differ among pollinator species, and flower visits and pollination rates are not equal.
