Agroforestry can provide ecosystem services and benefits such as soil erosion control,
microclimate modification for yield enhancement, economic diversification, livestock …

In light of pollinator decline, plant species suitable for the restoration and conservation of
pollinators need to be selected. In this systemic review, we concentrated on the importance …

Habitat fragmentation in agricultural landscapes has reduced the population sizes of many
plant species while increasing their spatial isolation. Restoration or maintenance of the …

Habitat fragmentation and isolation are considered important causes of biodiversity loss in
cultural landscapes. To counter the negative effects of fragmentation such as reduced …

We studied the spatial connectedness of Natura 2000 site boundaries and the functional
connectivity of the Natura 2000 network across the 34 terrestrial borders of the European …

Conservationists and protected area managers spend millions in establishing and
maintaining protected areas every year. However, many studies revealed that the design …

Life cycles can limit the abilities of species to track changing climatic conditions. We
combined age or stage structure and a moving-habitat model to explore the effects of life …

Background and aims–Understanding how to ensure connectivity by gene flow between
insect-pollinated plant populations is essential for designing functional ecological networks …

Agricultural intensification and the subsequent fragmentation of semi-natural habitats
severely restrict pollinator and pollen movement threatening both pollinator and plant …

In intensive agricultural landscapes, plant species previously relying on semi-natural
habitats may persist as metapopulations within landscape linear elements. Maintenance of …
