Agricultural intensification indirectly reshapes bee-plant interaction networks through shifts in bee functional traits. [PDF]
Ecol ApplAbstract High‐intensity farming can lead to non‐random local extinctions and functional filtering of pollinating insect assemblages, disproportionately harming species with certain traits. This process can ultimately reshape pollinator–plant interaction networks in predictable, consistent manners, although this pathway remains largely unexplored. Here,
