Anthropogenic activities are triggering global changes in the environment, causing entire
communities of plants, pollinators and their interactions to restructure, and ultimately leading …

Decreasing floral resources as a result of habitat loss is one of the key factors in the decline
of pollinating insects worldwide. Understanding which plants pollinators use is vital to inform …

Honey bees (Apis mellifera L.) are one of the most important managed pollinators of
agricultural crops. While potential effects of agricultural pesticides on honey bee health have …

A key conservation goal in agroecosystems is to understand how management practices
may affect beneficial species, such as pollinators. Currently, broad gaps exist in our …

1. An ongoing challenge in ecology is predicting how characteristics of communities
correspond to habitat features. Examining variation in functional traits across species may …

Urban built‐up lands and their expansion significantly reduce green areas, where
pollinators should find flowers for feeding and places for nesting, threatening their existence …

Temperate grasslands provide both habitats and flower resources for pollinators in
agricultural landscapes. Plant-pollinator networks change according to local and landscape …

Simple Summary Pollen is the main source of protein, fats, and many micronutrients for
honey bees, and it also has the potential to be a major route of exposure to pesticides. The …

While many factors have been implicated in global pollinator decline, habitat loss is a key
driver of wild pollinator decline in both abundance and species richness. An increase in and …

Taxonomic analysis of pollen collected by bees can provide insights into their host plant use,
providing information about the plant species selected for targeted conservation strategies …
