Reproductive success through high pollinator visitation rates despite self incompatibility in an endangered wallflower [PDF]
, 2016 PREMISE OF THE STUDY: Self incompatibility (SI) in rare plants presents a unique challenge—SI protects plants from inbreeding depression, but requires a sufficient number of mates and xenogamous pollination. Does SI persist in an endangered polyploid? Is

Combined stress from parasites, pesticides and lack of flowers drives bee declines [PDF]
, 2015 Bees are subject to numerous pressures in the modern world. The abundance and diversity of flowers has declined, bees are chronically exposed to cocktails of agrochemicals, and they are simultaneously exposed to novel parasites accidentally spread by ...

Plant species richness and sunlight exposure increase pollinator attraction to pollinator gardens
Ecosphere, 2022 Evidence documenting the decline of insect populations is accumulating. Efforts have increased to mitigate pollinator losses by establishing gardens to support pollinator diversity.

Testing the accuracy of a Rights-of-Way pollinator habitat scoring system
Ecological Indicators, 2023 Habitat loss is a major cause of pollinator declines, and there is increased interest by the public in creating pollinator-friendly lands. Electric and transportation rights-of-way (ROW) present an opportunity for large amounts of land to be managed to ...

Spatial Relation of Bumblebees (Hymenoptera-Apidae) with Host-Plant and their Conservation Issues: An Outlook from Urban Ecosystem of Kathmandu Valley, Nepal [PDF]
, 2019 Ecology and conservation status of bumblebee species remains poorly understood, especially in rapidly degrading urban ecosystems, which is important considering the role of bumblebees in the pollinations. We collected more than 200 bumblebee (Bombus

Conserving diversity in Irish plant–pollinator networks
Ecology and Evolution, 2022 Beneficial insects provide valuable services upon which we rely, including pollination. Pollinator conservation is a global priority, and a significant concern in Ireland, where over half of extant bee species have declined significantly in recent ...
