Insect pollinators collect pollen from wind‐pollinated plants: implications for pollination ecology and sustainable agriculture (2018, background): “nectar, and therefore attractive to, and pollinated by, insects (Haaland et al., 2011; Pywell et al., 2011).”
Opportunities to enhance pollinator biodiversity in solar parks (2021, background): “As with grazing, cutting during the summer was suggested to negatively impact pollinators due to the reduction in resources at crucial times [53] and benefits of summer rest periods were reported across pollinator groups [57,121].”
Changes in nectar supply: A possible cause of widespread butterfly decline (2012, background): “…limited to specialized plants (Jennersten, 1984; Bloch et al., 2006; Lind et al., 2008), butterflies may enhance pollination by other pollinators (Carvlaheiro et al., 2011) and they can be regarded as suitable bioindicators for flower-visiting insects (Pe'er and Settele, 2008; Pywell et al., 2011).”
Identifying key knowledge needs for evidence‐based conservation of wild insect pollinators: a collaborative cross‐sectoral exercise (2013, background): “The results demonstrate that conservation practitioners in the group are focussed on existing agri-environment schemes as a mechanism for wild pollinator conservation (as described by Pywell et al., 2011).”
Landscape impacts on pollinator communities in temperate systems: evidence and knowledge gaps (2017, unknown): “At local scales, the performance of AES are influenced by their management, with wild pollinators benefitting from uncut refugia in extensively managed hay meadows (Buri, Humbert & Arlettaz 2014) and cutting regimes that extend the flowering season in sown flower patches (Pywell et al. 2011).”
Pollination reservoirs for wild bee habitat enhancement in cropping systems: a review (2017, background): “Local scale resources and bee species diversity, richness, and abundance Proximity of suitable floral resources to nest sites can increase the species richness and abundance of pollinators (Carvalheiro et al. 2011; Korpela et al. 2013; Pywell 2005; Pywell et al. 2011).”
POLLINATION DEFICITS IN UK APPLE ORCHARDS (2014, unknown): “Once again, management of orchards could be adapted accordingly to support greater bumblebee populations (Carvell et al. 2011; Pywell et al. 2011), although the practicality of such measures in orchards would need to be considered.”
Herbivore and pollinator responses to grassland management intensity along experimental changes in plant species richness (2012, background): “, 2009), but it can also cause disturbance, fluctuation in resource availability and reductionof the structural complexity, depending on the temporal and spatial scale and management intensity considered (Johst et al., 2006; Pywell et al., 2011).”
