Pollen beetles (Brassicogethes spp.) are the main pests of oilseed rape (OSR, Brassica napus) in Europe and responsible for massive yield losses. Upco...

Interest in pollen-borne gene dispersal has grown with the cultivation of genetically modified plants. To date, both experimental data and models of o...

Pollinators experience large spatiotemporal fluctuations in resource availability when mass-flowering crops are rotated with resource-poor cereal crop...

Aphid clones that feed on the same plant species for many generations often develop biotypes specifically adapted to the particular host-plant. Such b...

Recent biodiversity declines require action across sectors such as agriculture. The situation is particularly acute for arthropods, a species-rich tax...

Pollination is a vital ecosystem service, which is endangered by the ongoing declines of pollinators. These declines also affect bumblebees (Bombus sp...

Growing evidence for declines in wild bees calls for the development and implementation of effective mitigation measures. Enhancing floral resources i...

Modern agricultural landscapes are dynamic systems with interannually changing proportions of different crop types. However, the effects of spatiotemp...

Conventional agriculture in the global north is typically characterized by large monocultures, commonly managed with high levels of pesticide or ferti...

Conventional farming has been implicated in global biodiversity and pollinator declines and organic farming is often regarded as a more ecological alt...
