Table 1.
List of studies (published in 2000–2016) that use spatial or temporal transplants of plants or pollinators and consider plant–pollinator interactions and/or pollination success. Studies are grouped according to the type of transplant (spatial or temporal), along with synopses of study design, and whether they focus on climate change.
| Study | Transplant type | Study design | Focus on climate change? |
| Anderson et al. (2015) | Spatial | Reciprocal transplants of two subspecies of Clarkia xantiana across their ranges and contact zone, studying pollinator-mediated selection for different plant traits | No |
| Forrest and Thomson (2011) | Spatial | Reciprocal transplants of solitary bees and wasps over an elevational gradient, comparing emergence times and modeling phenological overlap with floral resources | Yes |
| Gómez et al. (2009) | Spatial | Reciprocal transplants of Erysimum mediohispanicum between sites with strong and weak pollinator-mediated selection, comparing pollinator visitation for the local and foreign plants | No |
| Kalske et al. (2012) | Spatial | Reciprocal transplants of Vincetoxicum hirundinaria, studying local adaptation to the environment, to herbivores and to pollinators, as well as local adaptation of herbivores and pollinators to sympatric plant populations | No |
| Meindl et al. (2013) | Spatial | Reciprocal transplants of Mimulus guttatus inflorescences between sites with serpentine and nonserpentine soil to measure effects on pollinator visitation | No |
| Gezon et al. (2016) | Temporal | Snow removal and greenhouse conditions used to manipulate flowering phenology of Claytonia lanceolata, with field observations of pollinator visitation | Yes |
| Hoover et al. (2012) | Temporal | Controlled-environment chambers used to test the effects of three global change treatments (elevated CO2, elevated N, and increased temperature) on plant phenology and bumble bee preferences | Yes |
| Parsche et al. (2011) | Temporal | Phenological manipulations of Sinapis arvensis carried out using early planting and artificial long-day conditions, followed by field observations of pollinator visitation | Yes |
| Rafferty and Ives (2011) | Temporal | Greenhouse manipulations of 14 plant species, prior to field observations of pollinator visitation | Yes |
| Rafferty and Ives (2012) | Temporal | Greenhouse manipulations of Tradescantia ohiensis and Asclepias incarnata, measuring pollinator effectiveness | Yes |
