Wild bee populations are declining due to human activities, such as land use change, which
strongly affect the composition and diversity of available plants and food sources. The …

Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is one of the most common urinary diseases affecting
men, generally after the age of 50. The prevalence of this multifactorial disease increases …

Poor nutrition and landscape changes are regularly cited as key factors causing the decline
of wild and managed bee populations. However, what constitutes 'poor nutrition'for bees …

We investigated nutrition as a potential mechanism underlying the link between floral
diversity/composition and wild bee performance. The health, resilience, and fitness of bees …

The movement of pollen grains from anthers to stigmas, often by insect pollinator vectors, is
essential for plant reproduction. However, pollen is also a unique vehicle for viral spread …

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 …

Honey bee (Apis mellifera) workers feed their larvae with food jelly that is secreted by
specialized glands in their heads–the hypopharyngeal and the mandibular glands. Food …

For pollinators such as bees, nectar mainly provides carbohydrates and pollen provides
proteins, amino acids, and lipids to cover their nutritional needs. Here, to examine …

Bee performance and well-being strongly depend on access to sufficient and appropriate
resources, in particular pollen and nectar of flowers, which constitute the major basis of bee …

Plant biodiversity is crucial to satisfy the trophic needs of pollinators, mainly through nectar
and pollen rewards. However, a few studies have been directed to ascertain the intraspecific …
