Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 6, Page 1906-1920, June 2026.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Human‐driven landscape change, particularly urbanization, is reshaping pollinator communities, yet the functional traits that mediate species persistence remain poorly understood. Dietary specialization is commonly used to predict species vulnerability.

High Densities of Large Herbivores Rapidly Disrupt Ecosystem Integrity
Global Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 6, June 2026.Human‐driven increases in large herbivore populations are emerging as a widespread global change pressure on terrestrial ecosystems. Using the largest hectare‐scale herbivore density manipulation experiment conducted to date, we show that high deer densities rapidly disrupt ecosystem integrity across multiple dimensions of biodiversity and ecosystem ...

The Red Queen unveils the sexual and mating strategies of flowers
Journal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 5, May 2026.Although the conventional wisdom is that floral traits of plants evolved in concert with their mutualistic pollinators, here we showed that several key sexual and mating traits of plants, which modulate their outcrossing strategy, evolved in response to the pressure exerted by their antagonistic insect herbivores.

Fire modulates the structural drivers and functioning of individual‐based plant‐pollinator networks
Journal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 5, May 2026.Ecological drivers that shape (positively or negatively) the plant‐pollinator network and determine plant fitness, both before and after a fire. Abstract Fire is a natural phenomenon that shapes ecosystems, but climate change and human activities have increased its frequency and magnitude, disrupting essential ecosystem services like pollination ...

INSETOS DIPTERAS COMO POLINIZADORES EM ORCHIDACEAE
Revista Uningá, 2015 A polinização é o principal processo de reprodução emplantas, e os insetos são um dos grupos mais atuantes nessemecanismo. Nas orquídeas os membros da ordem Hymenopterase destacam, entretanto dípteras, lepidopteras ecoleopteras também exercem este papel.

Differential effects of agricultural expansion on wild bee taxonomic and functional diversity
Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 4, Page 878-892, April 2026.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Pollinators, especially bees, are in global decline, threatening biodiversity and food security. While intensive agriculture is a primary driver, its impact on bee functional diversity—particularly in the diverse Mediterranean region—remains understudied.

Blueberry pollination in southern Brazil and their influence on fruit quality
Revista Brasileira de Fruticultura, 2011 Blueberry (Vaccinium ashei) is a relatively new crop in cultivation under Southern Brazil conditions. The first collection introduced in the area was formed by rabbiteye cultivars which need insect pollinators and also pollinizers.
