A Tool for Selecting Plants When Restoring Habitat for Pollinators

open access: yes, 2017
Native pollinators and, particularly bees, are a critical component of agricultural systems. Unfortunately, many factors are leading to their declines, including habitat loss.

Characterization of the diversity of pollinating insects and their interactions with the flora of the “Agro-forêts pour le développement de Kipushi” perimeter

open access: yesFrontiers in Bee Science
Anthropogenic disturbances mainly involve the loss of habitats in tropical regions where there is also significant population growth. These disturbances also have an impact on the plant pollination service, which is struggling to be explored in the ...

Pollinators In Peril: A Systematic Status Review of North American and Hawaiian Native Bees [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
While the decline of European honeybees in the United States and beyond has been well publicized in recent years, the more than 4,000 species of native bees in North America and Hawaii have been much less documented. Although these native bees are not as

Floral trait similarity at the community‐level increases reproductive success suggesting facilitation through pollinator sharing [PDF]

open access: hybridOikos, EarlyView.
The ability of plants to attract pollinators is context‐dependent, influenced by floral traits, abundance, and resources from the plant community. Indirect interactions through shared pollinators, from competition to facilitation, may lead to varied reproductive outputs in plants, and the mechanisms behind these interactions remain to be fully ...

Integrated characterization of Greek fennel genotypes through morpho‐agronomical characteristics, yield components and phytochemical compounds

open access: yesJSFA reports, Volume 5, Issue 3, Page 91-103, March 2025.
Abstract Background Fennel (Foeniculum vulgare Mill.) is a widely cultivated vegetable and aromatic‐medicinal plant. In this research, field studies assessed 12 fennel genotypes of diverse origin, comprising 10 Greek accessions and two European commercial varieties, focusing on their morpho‐agronomical traits, phenolic compounds and antioxidant ...

Legume based plant mixtures for delivery of multiple ecosystem services: An overview of benefits [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
As costs for mineral fertilizers rise, legume-based leys are recognised as a potential alternative nitrogen source for crops. Here we demonstrate that including species-rich legume-based leys in the rotation helps to maximize synergies between ...

Sensory and chemical profiles of bread derived from the novel semi‐ and wholegrain flour enrichment of Triticum aestivum L. old genotypes with organic stinging nettle

open access: yesJSFA reports, Volume 5, Issue 3, Page 104-112, March 2025.
Abstract Background Bread made from refined Triticum aestivum L. flour, a staple food in large parts of the world, is considered a nutrient security risk. Strategies used to enhance the nutritional and functional properties of wheat‐derived food products include the use of semi‐ or wholegrain flour, old genotypes, and enrichment through fortification ...
