    Wasp Pollination Leads to Orchid Hybridization on Remote Islands

Kobe University researchers found that this came at the cost of being hybridized with another orchid species adapted to being pollinated by the wasp. The finding showcases how plants in ecological relationships adapt to changing circumstances.
