Pollination Vectors
J.E. Shields (Sun, 11 May 2008 07:19:13 PDT)
Hi Kelly,
I'm just referring to anything that transports pollen from one flower to
another in a manner that results in pollination of the recipient flower, so
I use "vector" in the broadest sense. It had not occurred to me before
that there might be a methodology involved in establishing that a
particular bug was a true natural pollinator of a given plant species.

Hi, Jim. I don't have an answer. I would ask are meaning "pollinator"
and not "pollination vector", unless you are talking about disease carriers?
