Is Nocturnal Pollination Important for Crop Production? Experimental Evidence From Small Fruit Crops
Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 150, Issue 2, Page 147-157, March 2026.ABSTRACT Insect‐mediated pollination is essential for crop production but is mainly studied considering diurnal pollinators only. Here, we use pollinator exclusion techniques to prevent either diurnal or nocturnal insect visits in small fruit crops: raspberry (Rubus idaeus), over 1 year, and red currant (Ribes rubrum) and black currant (Ribes nigrum ...

Reconsidering climatic predictors for high‐resolution niche models of alpine plants
Oikos, Volume 2026, Issue 2, February 2026.The increasingly acknowledged and consequently also better understood microclimatic variability in terrestrial ecosystems has motivated a call for finer spatial resolution in species distribution modelling, especially in the case of sedentary low‐stature organisms such as plants.
