Using stable isotopes in hummingbird breath to estimate reliance on supplemental feeders
Ecology and Evolution, 2023 Understanding the ecological consequences of supplemental feeding to both hummingbirds and the plants they pollinate is complicated by logistical challenges associated with assessing relative dietary resource use with commonly applied observational ...

A multi-taxonomic survey to determine the conservation status of native pollinators
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2023 The worldwide decline of insects calls for understanding the conservation status of key insect groups at local and regional scales. Pollinators are widely recognized as especially important to native ecosystems and agriculture and their declines have ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.GbSER02 with a single base change (SNP517G) encodes normal serpin protein and interacts with transcription factor VOZ1 to alleviate the repression of VOZ1 on GA3ox1 and promote GA3 biosynthesis. Further, GA3 induces the expression of cell wall loosening‐related genes and decreases flavonoid content, ultimately facilitating fiber cell elongation in ...

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView., 2023 Abstract Background Plant responses to deficiencies of the micronutrient boron are diverse and go beyond the well‐characterized function of boron in cell wall crosslinking. To explain these phenotypic discrepancies, hypotheses about interactions of boron with various phytohormones have been proposed, particularly auxin.

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 ...

Solar park management and design to boost bumble bee populations
Environmental Research Letters, 2022 Solar photovoltaics is projected to become the dominant renewable, with much capacity being installed as ground-mounted solar parks. Land use change for solar can affect ecosystems across spatial scales and solar parks offer a unique opportunity for ...

The Pollination of the Olive [PDF]
Nature, 1908 As Knuth's great work on flower pollination, compiled from all available sources, says nothing whatever about the olive, I recently asked Prof. J. E. Coit, of Arizona, to look out for insects upon the flowers. He carefully examined many olive trees in flower at Tucson, and did not find a single insect at the flowers, with the exception of a thrips ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.The complex centered on Ghd7 binds to numerous carbon and nitrogen metabolism genes on the genome through the corresponding motifs and transactivates the transcriptional expression of these carbon and nitrogen metabolism genes. With the assistance of OsNAC42 and other unknown Ghd7‐interacting proteins, this complex can regulate different metabolic ...

Insects, 2022 Stingless bees are ecologically and economically important species in the tropics and subtropics, but there has been little research on the characterization of detoxification systems and immune responses within them.
