Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.Time‐lapse photography with commercially available trail cameras provides a competitive alternative to direct human observations for documenting pollinator flower visits, but its performance varies between crops. In apple, the cameras recorded more diverse pollinator assemblages than the human observer due to larger temporal coverage of the camera ...

Molecular Detection and Phylogenetic Relationships of Honey Bee-Associated Viruses in Bee Products
Veterinary SciencesIn the last few years, the isolation and amplification of DNA or RNA from the environment (eDNA/eRNA) has proven to be an alternative and non-invasive approach for molecular identification of pathogens and pests in beekeeping.

Honey bee louse (Braula schmitzi) as a honey bee virus vector?
, 2019 Beekeeping is considered an integral part of agriculture, either as a main or complementary activity. However, the increase in the number of managed honey bee colonies does not meet the steadily increasing need for managed pollinators in agriculture ...

Combined effects of the landscape and crop management on ant communities
Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.At small spatial scales, agricultural management acts as a stronger ecological filter than landscape context, significantly shaping ant community composition. Species richness and frequency did not differ among treatments, indicating the predominance of generalist species.

The COLOSS BEEBOOK Volume II: Standard methods for Apis mellifera pest and pathogen research
, 2013 n recent years, declines of honey bee populations have received massive media attention worldwide, yet attempts to understand the causes have been hampered by a lack of standardisation of laboratory techniques. Published as a response to this, the COLOSS

Novel Biopesticides Based on Recombinant Avidin for Protection of Crops Against Insect Pests [PDF]
, 2012 Farmers are required to increase their food productivity to meet the demand from a continually enlarging population. A major constraint on meeting this requirement is the damage created by insect pests.

Pest‐preservation paradox among insects
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.The pest‐preservation paradox is a non‐binary perspective that insects range from those that are harmful and requiring management on the one side, to those requiring conservation intervention on the opposite end of the spectrum. Importantly, the vast majority of insects occur somewhere in the center of the two extremes, and their position along the ...

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.Using DNA metabarcoding, this study investigates pollen transported by syrphids (Syrphidae) in the Dolomiti Bellunesi National Park and agricultural sites in Northern Italy. The analysis reveals a high diversity of visited plant taxa, including previously undocumented plant–pollinator interactions.
