Physiological barriers to oral intake in survivors of critical illness: A scoping review

open access: yesNutrition in Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Oral nutrition is the predominant mode of nutrition delivery on the post–Intensive Care Unit (ICU) ward; yet, it is associated with lower intake than via enteral or parenteral nutrition. There are limited data on barriers that influence oral intake in ICU survivors.

Thermal inactivation of Byssochlamys nivea in pineapple nectar combined with preliminary high pressure treatments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Byssochlamys nivea is a thermal resistant filamentous fungi and potential micotoxin producer. Recent studies have verified the presence of ascospores of such microorganism in samples of pineapple nectars.

Assessing risks and benefits of floral supplements in conservation biological control [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The use of flowering field margins is often proposed as a method to support biological control in agro-ecosystems. In addition to beneficial insects, many herbivores depend on floral food as well.

Historical nectar assessment reveals the fall and rise of Britain in bloom

open access: yesNature, 2015
There is considerable concern over declines in insect pollinator communities and potential impacts on the pollination of crops and wildflowers. Among the multiple pressures facing pollinators, decreasing floral resources due to habitat loss and ...

Pollination biology and reproductive ecology of critically endangered endemic Campanula teucrioides in western Anatolia

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Campanula teucrioides Boiss. is a critically endangered species found in a single locality in western Turkey. Determining the population size of C. teucrioides and conducting reproductive biology studies are of great importance in determining the necessary strategy for the conservation of the species. The area where the plant distributed was determined

Fly pollinator foraging in boreal forests is shaped by climate, forest structure and flower resources

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Most insect pollinators are ectothermic and rely on external heat sources for temperature regulation. Forests, with their diverse canopy structures and sunlight penetration levels, create a mosaic of microclimates influencing these insects' behaviour.

Effect of Abiotic Factors on Nectar Quality and Secretion of Two Early Spring Species, Galanthus nivalis L. and Helleborus niger L.

open access: yesDiversity
Floral nectar is mainly a reward in the form of food for pollinators. In early spring, when snow can still be present, pollinators have trouble finding food.

The Octadecanoid Pathway, but Not COI1, Is Required for Nectar Secretion in Arabidopsis thaliana

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2018
Over 75% of crop species produce nectar and are dependent on pollinators to achieve maximum seed set, yet little is known about the mechanisms regulating nectar secretion.

Differential Effects of Climate Warming on the Nectar Secretion of Early- and Late-Flowering Mediterranean Plants

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2018
Floral nectar is a vital resource for pollinators, thus having a very important role in ecosystem functioning. Ongoing climate warming could have a negative effect on nectar secretion, particularly in the Mediterranean, where a strong temperature rise is
