Reproductive system and interaction with fauna in a Mediterranean Pyrophite shrub

Abstract

The ULEX model, in its present state, involves the study of the biomass and the population of the shrub Ulex parviflorus Pourret, but while being a dynamic model, it is static in the sense that it does not imply the appearance of new specimens of this plant. As a complement to the ULEX model in its two dynamic and spatial aspects, and with the idea of extending the model, the authors have introduced from a biological and statistical point of view four characteristics of this species, flowering, pollination, fructification, taking special interest in the role played by the pollinators (bees) and dispersion of seeds.
