To enhance biological pest control in crop fields, it is recommended to increase semi-natural area on farm and decrease insecticide spraying. While th...

Intensification of agricultural landscapes to fulfil increased global food demands has dramatically impacted biodiversity and ecosystem services. Seve...

Multiple trade-offs likely occur between pesticide use, pollinators and yield (via crop flowers) in pollinator-dependent, mass-flowering crops (MFCs),...

While abiotic drivers of yields represent important limiting factors to crop productivity, the role of biotic drivers that could be directly managed b...

Most pollinator policy initiatives are focused on habitat restoration and increasing the availability of floral resources, yet the choice of plant spe...

In farmland biodiversity, a potential risk to the larvae of non-target Lepidoptera from genetically modified (GM) Bt-maize expressing insecticidal Cry...

Two lectins, concanavalin A (Con A) and Galanthus nivalis agglutinin (GNA), have anti-feedant properties that suggest a potential for the control of i...

The life history, population dynamics and dispersal of the snail Theba pisana were studied in a cereal-pasture rotation in South Australia in 1984-88....

Apple is one of the most widely cultivated fruit crops world-wide, and apple yield benefits from pollination by insects. The global decline in wild po...
