Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.Multispecies occupancy models indicated that the occurrence of bumble bees was associated with local floral resources as well as the landscape surrounding a site within 1.6 km. Estimated species richness was greater at sites with more forest cover and lower at sites with more corn and soybean agriculture in the surrounding landscape.

Roadside pollinator populations and the negative impact of intensive roadside vegetation maintenance
Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.Less intensively managed roadsides had higher numbers of flower flies and bees; bee diversity was also higher in those roadsides. Community composition was similar across both management types, indicating that roadsides support a fairly homogeneous pollinator community, regardless of management.

Contrasting effects of land cover on nesting habitat use and reproductive output for bumble bees
Ecosphere, 2021 Understanding habitat quality is central to understanding the distributions of species on the landscape, as well as to conserving and restoring at‐risk species. Although it is well known that many species require different resources throughout their life

Identification of the main virus infecting impatiens (Impatiens balsamina L.)
IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2020 Abstract One of the most important obstacles of growing ornamental plants, such as impatiens is disease infections, including those caused by viruses. Identification of viruses infecting impatiens was carried out in the IOCRI Virology laboratory using serological techniques and RT-PCR.

Phenotypic plasticity is broadly adaptive across an elevation gradient in the Cutleaf Monkeyflower
New Phytologist, EarlyView.Leaf shape plasticity expression is variable in Mimulus laciniatus. Summary Phenotypic plasticity is a key mechanism by which organisms cope with environmental heterogeneity, but its evolutionary consequences depend on how plastic responses align with the broader adaptive landscape.

From quantity to quality: the evolution of forest restoration in the United Kingdom
Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Abstract Introduction Over the past century, forest cover in the United Kingdom has increased threefold. However, the pathways, achievements, and shortcomings of this expansion remain underexplored. Objectives This study analyses the drivers, implementation, and legacies of forest restoration in the United Kingdom before and after 1990, which is when ...

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Abstract Introduction Human land use intensification and the resulting habitat loss are primary drivers of insect pollinator declines. Habitat restoration offers a promising approach to counteract these declines, yet landscape‐level evaluations of bee responses to restoration and management remain limited.
