(Or Eriogonum Fasciculatum) : Abiotic Requirements
(Or Eriogonum Fasciculatum) : Abiotic Requirements
Biotic requirements:
- Insects, fungi, and native grass
Disease:
- Can overcrowd, out-compete
other plants
Hypothesis:
As a result of the interaction between California Buckwheat and Africanized
Honey Bees to perform pollination, California Buckwheat thrives better in an area
where Africanized Honey Bees are present because this bee concentrates on
brood rearing and colony growth, which will lead to higher rates of fertility for the
California Buckwheat, through more pollination.
Evidence:
Future Research:
There is little-to-no current research for this interaction.
However, this dearth of research provides a plethora of opportunities for
future research.
A key-piece of information that should be studied is the population and density
of both species, over a specific period of time in a region of Southern
California.
