Bee and non-bee insect pollinators play an integral role in the quantity and quality of
production for many food crops, yet there is growing evidence that nutritional challenges to …

Pollinator nutritional ecology provides insights into plant–pollinator interactions, coevolution,
and the restoration of declining pollinator populations. Bees obtain their protein and lipid …

As bees' main source of protein and lipids, pollen is critical for their development,
reproduction, and health. Plant species vary considerably in the macronutrient content of …

Bees depend on flowering plants for their nutrition, and reduced availability of floral
resources is a major driver of declines in both managed and wild bee populations …

Freshly squeezed pumpkin juice (Cucurbita moschata D.) was sonicated at various power
levels at a constant frequency of 25 kHz and a treatment time of 10 min. Samples were …

Annual plants allocate soil nutrients to floral display and pollinator rewards to ensure
pollination success in a single season. Nitrogen and phosphorus are critical soil nutrients …

Plants may benefit from limiting the community of generalist floral visitors if the species that
remain are more effective pollinators and less effective pollenivores. Plants can reduce …

Simple Summary Research on nutritional requirements in combination with improving bee
protection has recently increased because of the continuous global decline in the …

Wild bees supply sufficient pollination in Cucurbita agroecosystems in certain settings;
however, some growers continue to stock fields with managed pollinators due to …

Certain diets can benefit bee health by reducing pathogens, but the mechanism (s) driving
these medicinal effects are largely unexplored. Recent research found that sunflower …
