Nectar chemistry modulates the impact of an invasive plant on native pollinators

Summary Invasive species are considered a main driver of pollinator declines, yet the direct effects of invasive alien plants on pollinators are poorly understood. Abundant, invasive plant species can provide a copious nectar resource for native pollinators. However, the nectar of some plants contai...
