This study characterized eight Moroccan bee pollen samples from different regions for their nutritional composition, mineral profile, phenolic content, antioxidant capacity, and antidiabetic potential. Results revealed significant regional variability, with potassium and calcium as dominant minerals, and strong antioxidant and α‐amylase/α‐glucosidase ...

The Sensory Identity of Caatinga Honeys: From Pollen Profile to Consumer Response
This study examines the sensory characterization of monofloral and polyfloral honeys produced by Apis mellifera bees in the Caatinga region of Paraíba, focusing on their color, appearance, and aroma. Through the application of descriptive methods (Focus Group and CATA), it was possible to generate a Sensory Wheel with terms that can be associated with ...

Dried honeybee podmore was evaluated as a sustainable functional food ingredient. The extract showed high protein, lipids, balanced amino acids, chitin, chitosan, minerals, phenolics, and flavonoids. It exhibited antioxidant activity, inhibited pancreatic lipase and alpha glucosidase, and enhanced insulin secretion in MIN6 beta cells, supporting ...

Wind turbines influence several abiotic conditions in the environments they are sited in and may influence the behavior and movement of insect pollinators. It is unknown how operating turbines influence plant–pollinator interactions. To investigate if pollination dynamics could be affected by the presence of wind turbines, we recorded videos of ...

Petrocosmea wentsaii sp. nov. (Gesneriaceae) from Guizhou, China
Petrocosmea wentsaii M.Q. Han, Miao.M. Wang & Yan Liu, a new species from Guizhou, China, is described and illustrated. Petrocosmea wentsaii was found on damp walls in a huge limestone cave. It is most similar to Petrocosmea hexiensis S.Z. Zhang & Z.Y. Liu in the conformation of the corolla.

An invasional meltdown can occur when a non‐native species facilitates the spread of another non‐native species in the invaded area, increasing its likelihood of survival or its ecological impact. Plant–pollinator systems pose an exceptional study system to test this concept, which remains poorly known.

Shared flowers can facilitate pathogen transmission between managed honey bees and wild bees, yet this process remains poorly understood in ecosystems undergoing rapid environmental change. Using a glacier foreland in Switzerland, we present the first study on how glacier retreat stages and bee life‐history traits influence pathogen occurrence across ...

Abstract Urbanisation poses a major threat to biodiversity, yet residential gardens offer opportunities to provide key habitats for urban wildlife. Understanding both the perceived feasibility of implementing further improvements to gardens for biodiversity and the barriers that constrain engagement is essential for designing effective conservation ...

Resilience‐as‐doing: A relational model for living practice
Abstract Dominant frameworks treat resilience as a capacity to withstand disturbance and recover, something systems, communities or individuals either have or lack. This paper proposes a different understanding, grounded in relational onto‐epistemology and first‐person, practice‐based, autoethnographic inquiry situated within a household garden.
