Synthesis of Pollinator‐Friendly Management in European Protected Areas
Effectiveness of pollinator‐friendly management in European protected areas. Abstract Pollinators are important to humans and nature due to their role in ecosystem functioning and services. Research on the effects of pollinator management in protected areas is insufficient compared with that on farmlands and urban areas, potentially hindering ...

Forest edges buffer effects of agricultural management on bee–plant interaction networks
Agricultural management effects: Organic and conventional crop margins host similar bee and plant species, but network structure differs: organic farms exhibit higher interaction diversity, conventional farms higher connectance. Role of forest edges: Native forest edges stabilize bee–plant networks by providing continuous floral resources and suitable ...

Constant visitation rates across the flowering season masked major shifts in plant and flower visitor interaction structure, specialization, species roles and trait‐driven patterns shaping interaction intensity. Plants and flower visitors changed ecological roles over time, with native flower visitors playing key roles in maintaining network cohesion ...

Hummingbird pollination is a hallmark of American plant diversity and has long been thought to evolve in tropical mountains due to declining bee activity. Using sister species of Costus specialized on bees (C. kuntzei) and hummingbirds (C. wilsonii), we show that this shift is not driven by reduced bee visitation with elevation, but by greater ...

Tropical Bee Assemblage Diversity Decreases With Elevation While Body Size Increases
Photos of bee specimens collected in the Colombian Andes across a nearly 3000 m elevational cline. They are arranged to illustrate both the decline in richness with elevation and the increase in community average body size with elevation. ABSTRACT Elevation gradients are powerful drivers of changes in species composition, richness, and functional ...

Prevalence of allergic sensitization to bee, mosquito and red ant in children with allergic disease
Background: The allergic sensitization to insects of the Hymenoptera and Culicidae order in pediatric population is studied with low frequency. Objective: To determine the prevalence of sensitization to bees, mosquito and fire ants in children with ...

Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Human‐driven landscape change, particularly urbanization, is reshaping pollinator communities, yet the functional traits that mediate species persistence remain poorly understood. Dietary specialization is commonly used to predict species vulnerability.

La nosemosis es una enfermedad de las abejas adultas, causada por el microsporidio Nosema spp., que afecta el intestino medio de las abejas. Los altos niveles de infección de una colonia pueden ocasionar reducción de la población, bajo rendimiento de ...

Abstract Subgrid machine‐learning (machine learning [ML]) parameterizations have the potential to introduce a new generation of climate models that incorporate the effects of higher‐resolution physics without incurring the prohibitive computational cost associated with more explicit physics‐based simulations.
