Plant species and floral traits shape arthropod communities in prairie plantings more than neonicotinoid contamination

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Agricultural practices are significant drivers of biodiversity loss, leading to reductions in ecological function and services across regions. To mitigate these effects, habitat restorations within agroecosystems have gained prominence as a strategy to enhance ecological stability and increase biodiversity.
