Fruit set and yield of pear cultivars as affected by reduced bee pollination period
International Journal of Horticultural Science, 2009 Results of our experiments prove that pear is more or less sensitive to the reduced bee pollination period. However, the reaction (or the sensitivity) of cultivars may be different to the reduced bee pollination.

Utilization of Indian Dammar Bee (Tetragonula iridipennis Smith) as a Pollinator of Bitter Gourd
Acta Agrobotanica, 2020 An experiment was conducted to determine the pollination deficit in bitter gourd (Momordica charantia L.) and the effect of the use of Indian dammar bee as pollinator on the yield. Diverse native visitors were recorded during the blooming period.

Autonomous Navigation of Pollen‐Inspired Magnetic Microrobots for Biomedical Applications
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.A sunflower pollen‐inspired magnetic microrobot enables controlled rolling navigation in vessel‐like environments. Its open geometry reduces hydrodynamic drag, while vision‐based closed‐loop control, shortest‐path planning, and reinforcement learning support target‐reaching and maze navigation with microrobot‐scale accuracy, highlighting a route toward

Spanish Journal of Agricultural Research, 2014 Maize (Zea mays L.) grain endosperm is triploid (3n), of which 2n come from the male (transferred by pollen) and only 1n from the female plant, thus a major impact of the male form can be expected on grain quality parameters. A good example of this relationship is the phenomenon of xenia.
