Enhancing floral resources for pollinators in productive agricultural grasslands [PDF]

, 2014
Across N.W. Europe intensive agricultural management has increased productivity to the detriment of floral resources vital for insect pollinators like bees, butterflies and hoverflies.

Green roof effects on floral phenology and floral nectar resources

, 2023
This study investigates the potential for green roofs to support pollinator diversity and abundance in urban ecosystems through the altered floral phenology and floral abundance of plants. I compare floral phenology and the floral abundance of green roof plants to plants grown at grade on the Front Range in Fort Collins, Colorado, and how these changes

Pollinator competition and the structure of floral resources

Ecography, 2022
The mutualism between plants and pollinators is built upon the trophic ecology of flowers and florivores. Yet the ecology of flowers‐as‐food is left implicit in most studies of plant–pollinator ecology, and it has been largely neglected in mainstream trophic ecology.

Bees from an Island in the Delta of the Americas (Maranhão state, Brazil) and their Floristic Interactions

Sociobiology, 2021
Surveys of the bee fauna on islands are scarce due to the difficult access to the study area. Thus, the current study intended to establish the species of bees present in an island of the Delta of the Americas, called Grande do Paulino, Tutóia, Maranhão.

A Mixed Infection of Helenium Virus S With Two Distinct Isolates of Butterbur Mosaic Virus, One of Which Has a Major Deletion in an Essential Gene

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Multiple carlaviruses infect various ornamental plants, often having limited host ranges and causing minor symptoms, yet often reducing yield or quality.

Insect-flower interaction network structure is resilient to a temporary pulse of floral resources from invasive Rhododendron ponticum. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
Invasive alien plants can compete with native plants for resources, and may ultimately decrease native plant diversity and/or abundance in invaded sites. This could have consequences for native mutualistic interactions, such as pollination.

A map of pollinator floral resource habitats in the agricultural landscape of Central New York [PDF]

One Ecosystem
We created a spatially and temporally-explicit model of floral area in Central New York State, USA, using public data from federal and state governmental agencies and non-governmental organisations.

Herbivory by a phloem-feeding insect inhibits floral volatile production [PDF]

, 2012
There is extensive knowledge on the effects of insect herbivory on volatile emission from vegetative tissue, but little is known about its impact on floral volatiles.

Drought reduces floral resources for pollinators

Global Change Biology, 2018
AbstractClimate change is predicted to result in increased occurrence and intensity of drought in many regions worldwide. By increasing plant physiological stress, drought is likely to affect the floral resources (flowers, nectar and pollen) that are available to pollinators. However, little is known about impacts of drought at the community level, nor
