Forest edges buffer effects of agricultural management on bee–plant interaction networks

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
Agricultural management effects: Organic and conventional crop margins host similar bee and plant species, but network structure differs: organic farms exhibit higher interaction diversity, conventional farms higher connectance. Role of forest edges: Native forest edges stabilize bee–plant networks by providing continuous floral resources and suitable ...
