Species are disappearing worldwide, and changes in climate land use commonly assumed to be the most important causes. Organisms counteracting negative effects of environmental factors on their survival by evolving various defence strategies, which positively affect fitness. Here, question addressed is: can evolution shape these strategies so that they fitness an organism? This is complex depends taxa factors. Therefore, here, only a special case this studied deceptive species orchids: reproductive success (RS, ratio number fruits flowers produced plant during whole season), used measure develop model describing how RS affects flowers, n, plant. predicts that: (i) resulting relationship between n skewed parabola, (ii) distribution numbers individuals with specific (n) NI(n), also resembles parabola skewed, (iii) peak NI left RS. A large set data presented supports predictions. If small, concave parabolic RS–n dependence obscured other

Cryptostylis ovata is a terrestrial orchid endemic to southwestern Australia. The virus status of C. has not been studied. Eighty-three samples from 16 populations were collected, and sequencing was used identify RNA viruses them. In one population, all tested plants co-infected with isolates the exotic-to-Australia Ornithogalum mosaic (OrMV) bean yellow (BYMV). another plant infected BYMV. No detected in remaining populations. OrMV isolate shared 98-99% nucleotide identity identified wild indigenous Lachenalia (Iridaceae) South Africa. This suggests that source may be or more bulbous iridaceous flowering southern African origin introduced Western Australia as ornamentals have since become invasive weeds. One BYMV also exhibited 99% strains isolated exotic leguminous crop Lupinus angustifolius Australia, suggesting possible spillover species this source. study highlights probable role weeds crops sources spillovers plants.

Forest Orchidaceae are important for European temperate forests, yet their distribution and abundance have so far interested limited research. In three pure or mixed silver fir stands in the Foreste Casentinesi National Park (NP) (Northern Apennines, Italy) we analysed how structural traits mature old-growth forests affected orchid communities terms of main genera, trophic strategy rarity NP.

Global warming is one of the biggest threats to global biodiversity causing not only changes in patterns precipitation and temperature but also disturbing ecological interactions. The aim our study was forecast effect climate change on distribution food-deceptive orchid species whose pollination strategy relies a strict association with pollinators co-occurring rewarding Faboideae plants. We used niche modeling approach evaluate future overlap suitable niches studied predicted their partners. Models were made based two different circulation models (FIO, CNRM). CNRM projections predict expansion orchids' geographical range. In contrast, FIO prediction less optimistic, forecasting range contraction. showed responses no consistent how might change.
