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 ...

Additive and Partially Dominant Effects from Genomic Variation Contribute to Rice Heterosis
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Additive and partially dominant effects, namely at mid‐parent levels or values between mid‐parent and parental levels, respectively, are the predominant inheritance patterns of heterosis‐associated molecules. These two genetic effects contribute to heterosis of agronomic traits in both rice and maize, as well as biomass heterosis in Arabidopsis ...

Investigation of an algae-derived polymer as a pollinator-friendly pesticide adjuvant
Scientific ReportsChemical applications in croplands can be a major source of pesticide exposure to pollinators, including off-target drift. Adjuvants are added to pesticides to improve spray characteristics. The major goal of this study was to identify the possibility of

Pollinator parasites and the evolution of floral traits
Ecology and Evolution, 2019 The main selective force driving floral evolution and diversity is plant–pollinator interactions. Pollinators use floral signals and indirect cues to assess flower reward, and the ensuing flower choice has major implications for plant fitness. While many

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 ...
