Food for Pollinators: Quantifying the Nectar and Pollen Resources of Urban Flower Meadows
PLoS ONE, 2016 Planted meadows are increasingly used to improve the biodiversity and aesthetic amenity value of urban areas. Although many ‘pollinator-friendly’ seed mixes are available, the floral resources these provide to flower-visiting insects, and how these ...

Land-Use and Height of Pollen Sampling Affect Pollen Exposure in Munich, Germany
Atmosphere, 2020 Airborne pollen concentrations vary depending on the location of the pollen trap with respect to the pollen sources. Two Hirst-type pollen traps were analyzed within the city of Munich (Germany): one trap was located 2 m above ground level (AGL) and the ...

Geoarchaeology, Volume 38, Issue 1, Page 35-56, January/February 2023., 2023 Abstract The effects of the Younger Dryas (YD) fluctuation on Late Pleistocene hunter‐gatherers' settlement and subsistence systems in the southern Alps are poorly known. This is primarily due to the scarcity of archaeological sites dating from the YD, in contrast with the extensive evidence available from the lateglacial interstadial and the early ...

RALF4/19 peptides interact with LRX proteins to control pollen tube growth in Arabidopsis
Science, 2017 Timing a switch in tissue integrity In plants, sperm cells travel through the pollen tube as it grows toward the ovule. Successful fertilization depends on the pollen tube rupturing to release the sperm cells (see the Perspective by Stegmann and Zipfel).

Charting the landscape of the environmental exposome
iMeta, Volume 1, Issue 4, December 2022., 2022 We describe the biological and chemical components of the environmental exposomes in three major environmental matrices that are highly relevant to human and social‐economical health—air, soil, and water. We discuss how different exposome components can interact with each other. Finally, we propose a list of outstanding challenges to be tackled to push
