A Systemic Model for Understanding Business Interactions With Biodiversity and Ecosystems
ABSTRACT Biodiversity loss and ecosystem degradation represent critical threats to human well‐being and economic resilience, challenging businesses to understand and manage their interdependence with natural systems. This study develops a systemic framework—the BioModel—that elucidates the reciprocal relationship between businesses, biodiversity, and ...

ABSTRACT This study examines why and how firms address biodiversity loss. Using a multiple case study of 10 large food and agriculture firms, we analyze 35 interviews and secondary data to show that firms pursue strategic objectives through biodiversity management beyond compliance or philanthropy.

Fatty acid composition of pollen and the effect of two dominant fatty acids (linoleic and oleic) in pollen and flour diets on longevity and nutritional composition of honey bees (apis mellifera) [PDF]
The size of the apiculture industry in Western Australia (W.A.) is one of the smallest in the nation but the production of pollen and honey per colony is the highest in Australia.

ABSTRACT Despite mounting regulatory pressure and growing scientific consensus on biodiversity loss, most corporate action remains reactive, fragmented, and strategically peripheral. Existing frameworks address what firms should report rather than how they can build the organizational capabilities required to act strategically.

Cytoflow: User‐Friendly Python Software for Computational Flow Cytometry
ABSTRACT Modern flow cytometry experiments routinely measure 18 or more fluorescent markers across many samples, patients, and tissues. As these experiments' complexity increases, manual gating becomes unacceptably inefficient and can introduce operator‐to‐operator variation. Computational cytometry algorithms such as unsupervised clustering, automated

Does keeping non-native honey bees in Iowa prairies endanger wild bees through exposure to viruses? [PDF]
Populations of wild and managed pollinators are declining in North America, due in part to a loss of flowering resources. Tallgrass prairies can provide floral resources for managed honey bees, as well as wild bees such as bumble bees.

Abstract Wild‐type transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTRwt‐CM) is a progressive and infiltrative cardiac disorder that may cause fatal consequences if left untreated. The estimated survival time from diagnosis is approximately 3–6 years. Because of the non‐specificity of initial symptom manifestation and insufficient awareness among treating ...

Seed coating with a neonicotinoid insecticide negatively affects wild bees.
Understanding the effects of neonicotinoid insecticides on bees is vital because of reported declines in bee diversity and distribution and the crucial role bees have as pollinators in ecosystems and agriculture.

Pollinator risks and recovery from air pollutant interactions during the fossil‐fuel transition
By altering the composition and concentration of floral scents, air pollutants such as ozone (O3) and nitrogen oxides (NOx) disrupt the ability of insect pollinators to locate flowers, threatening biodiversity and crop production. We examine the impact of these pollutants on pollinator performance and evaluate the short‐ and long‐term consequences of ...
