  1. 1. Privatträdgårdens potential som resurs för gynnande av pollinationssamhällen

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Landscape Architecture, Planning and Management (from 130101)

    Author : Karin Ericsson; [2024]
    Keywords : Pollinatörer; Biologisk mångfald; Urbanisering; Gynnande åtgärder; Påverkansfaktorer;

    Abstract : I detta arbete undersöks hotbilden mot de viktigaste pollinatörerna i Sverige, påverkansfaktorer samt vilka handlingsalternativ som finns för privatpersoner med engagemang i frågan. I dagsläget är många viktiga pollinatörer globalt och nationellt hotade, och därmed också de ekosystemtjänster som vi människor drar nytta av dagligen. READ MORE

  3. 2. The bzzzt of frirends. Interspecific competition in Arctic plants for pollination services.

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

    Author : Malin Olsson; [2023-06-27]
    Keywords : the Arctic; pollinator networks; competition; autonomous selfing; Arktis; pollinationsnätverk; konkurrens; autonom självpollinering;

    Abstract : The Arctic has a harsh environment that is challenging for the flora and fauna that inhabits the region. The ruling abiotic factors of the region results is a low species richness that creates a potential challenge for the region’s plant species. READ MORE

  4. 3. The effects of the exploiters (non-pollinating insects) on mutualistic interactions between the plant and its pollinator

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Examensarbeten i biologi

    Author : Yiaohong Xu; [2023]
    Keywords : Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : Mutualistic interactions between, for example, plants and pollinators play a crucial role in maintaining the biodiversity of ecosystems, while non-pollinating insects (exploiters) that exploit plants are commonly thought to have destabilizing effects. The long-term, i.e. READ MORE

  5. 4. INDIVIDUAL TRAIT MATCHING OF BUMBLEBEES (BOMBUS) AND FLOWERS ALONG AN ENVIRONMENTAL GRADIENT

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för ekologi, miljö och geovetenskap

    Author : Johan Per Michael Svedin; [2022]
    Keywords : Arctic climate change; Bombus; Flower morphology; Plant-pollinator trait-matching;

    Abstract : Insect pollinators serve a critical role in maintaining plant biodiversity and are especially susceptible to changes within their environment. To study the possible effects of seasonal variation in temperature, as well as climatic temperature increase on the plant-pollinator community, the relationship between bumblebee and flowering plant traits along an elevational gradient, representing warming-induced changes in plant community, were examined.
