Biodiversity loss during the Anthropocene is a serious ecological challenge. Pollinators are
important vectors that provide multiple essential ecosystem services but are declining …

Inferring insect pollination from compression fossils and amber inclusions is difficult because
of a lack of consensus on defining an insect pollinator and the challenge of recognizing this …

Food security and food safety are two concepts related to food risks. The majority of studies
regarding climate change and food risks are related to the security of food provision. The …

Mechanisms that favour rare species are key to the maintenance of diverse communities,–.
One of the most critical tasks for conservation of flowering plant biodiversity is to understand …

Insect pollinator biodiversity is changing rapidly, with potential consequences for the
provision of crop pollination. However, the role of land use–climate interactions in pollinator …

Most contemporary angiosperms (flowering plants) are insect pollinated, but pollination by
wind, water or vertebrates occurs in many lineages. Though evidence suggests insect …

Agriculture is currently one of the leading economic sectors most impacted by climate
change. Due to its great field of application and its susceptibility to meteorological variability …

Due to their unique properties, nanomaterials behave peculiarly in biosystems. Regarding
plants, the interactions of nanomaterials can be interpreted on a spatial scale: from local …

Insects contribute considerably to global crop pollination, with pollination deficits being
documented for multiple entomophilous or pollinator-dependent crops. Different cultivars of …

Genetic diversity (GD) in populations is important in determining the adaptive potential of
populations and is thus thought to influence whether populations decrease or increase in …
