Pollinator nutrition is a highly complex subject that we are just starting to unravel, from the
multidimensional nature of bee forage (pollen and nectar) to how the abiotic environment …

Maintaining a balance between growth needs and available food resources is critical to the
development of any organism. Ecological stoichiometry provides a theoretical basis for …

Simple Summary Interest in beekeeping has significantly increased in recent years. A basic
understanding of the nutritional and physiological requirements of honeybees is of great …

Adult pollinators that forage primarily for energy have traditionally guided our understanding
of plant–pollinator interactions, leading to assumptions about the importance of different …

Nectar, an important reward in plant-pollinator interactions, mainly provides sugars, but also
other nutrients. Nectar sugar content is known to affect pollinator preferences, while the …

Many plants have evolved nutrient rewards to attract pollinators to flowers, but most research
has focused on the sugar content of floral nectar resources. Concentrations of sodium in …

It is imperative to say that we are immersed in a sea of microorganisms due to their
ubiquitous presence on the planet, from soil to water and air. Human bodies harbor a vast …

I aimed to elucidate nutrient cycling through the flower visitation pathway. Thus, I
investigated factors affecting the proportions of essential nutrients (C, N, P, S, K, Na, Ca, Mg …
