In this podcast, Functional Ecology author Fernando Gonçalves talks to Assistant Editor Amelia Macho about his article "Pollen essential amino acids shape bat–flower interaction networks".
Fernando's article discusses how pollen protein and amino acid composition influence year-round and seasonal bat–flower interaction networks. Its results underscore the essential role of pollen, not just nectar, as a key reward for attracting flower-visiting bats, and therefore highlights pollen content as an important driver structuring pollination networks.

Revista de Ecología Animal | Experiencia del Editor: Dr Mariano Rodriguez-Cabal
En nuestra serie 'Experiencia editorial', nos reuniremos con cada uno de nuestros editores principales, quienes compartirán los motivos por los que se dedicaron a la ecología animal, sus áreas de investigación actuales y futuras, y su experiencia como editores de la revista Journal of Animal Ecology. Nuestro objetivo es dar a conocer su área de investigación y ofrecerle la oportunidad de conocer a los editores que hay detrás de la revista. El invitado de este mes es el Dr. Mariano Rodríguez-Cabal, editor de Research Highlights para la revista Journal of Animal Ecology. Gracias a nuestro editor del blog, Rowan Kuminski, por presentar este episodio.
