Conservation challenges and opportunities for native apple (Malus) species in Canada
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Apple, one of the world's most widely cultivated and economically important fruit crops, has two wild relatives native to Canada. In this review, we describe the importance of these native apple species to Indigenous heritage and the current threats the species faces due to pests, diseases, and habitat loss.

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Urban agriculture depends on insect pollination, but knowledge gaps persist due to difficulties accessing diverse growing spaces. We developed a citizen science approach for monitoring insect visits to crops and compared grower‐collected data to that of a trained researcher while also gathering participant feedback.

Bee pollen and its pharmacological properties
Communications Faculty of Science University of Ankara Series C Biology Geological Engineering and Geophysical Engineering, 2018 Bee pollen is a natural honey bee product that is considered a valuable resource for nutrients and energy. It is a health-enhancing value because of its wide variety of primary and secondary plant metabolites and enzymes and co-enzymes. Therefore, bee pollen is especially appreciated by consumers and used as an alternative drug.
