The surprises of color evolution

Press/Media: ResearchAcademic

Description

Nature is full of colour. For flowers, displaying colour is primarily a means to attract pollinators. Insects use their colour vision not only to locate the right flowers to feed on but also to find mates. The evolutionary interaction between insects and plants has created complex dependencies that can have surprising outcomes. Casper van der Kooi, a biologist at the University of Groningen, uses an interdisciplinary approach to analyse the interaction between pollinators and flowers. In January, he was the first author of two review articles on this topic.

    DescriptionInsectenbestuiving is een boeiend samenspel tussen bloemen en insecten, waarbij insecten van bloem tot bloem vliegen en stuifmeel overbrengen. Hoe is dit samenspel ooit ontstaan? De bioloog Casper van der Kooi, werkzaam bij de Rijksuniversiteit Groningen, publiceerde afgelopen jaar samen met een collega het artikel ‘The origins of flowering plants and pollinators’ (Van der Kooi en Ollerton, 2020).
