The Environmental Conservation Department is offering this grant to conduct a vital pollinator study on the endangered dwarf bear claw poppy (Arctomecon humilis). This grant is for the critical purpose of enhancing our understanding of this species’ reproductive success and its interaction with pollinators. Key objectives include comparing fruit production and seed set between naturally pollinated and hand-outcrossed populations. Researchers will also identify flower visitors across all poppy populations and perform experimental cross-pollination to determine if genetic isolation limits reproductive success. The insights gained from this study will significantly contribute to effective management strategies for the poppy’s habitat, ensuring its long-term conservation. This essential research aims to bridge knowledge gaps on the poppy-pollinator relationship.

| Description: | The objective of this study is to conduct a pollinator study of the endangered dwarf bear claw poppy. Three objectives would be met:1. average fruit production and seed set would be compared between populations that are naturally pollinated and those that have been hand outcrossed, 2. flower visitors of all poppy populations would be collected and identified, and 3. perform experimental cross-pollination between populations to determine whether or not genetic isolation is limiting reproductive success. Successful completion of the project will result a greater understand of the relationship between the endangered poppy and its pollinators.This information will be critical in management of the poppy habitat. |
