Buzzing by bees during flower pollination is significantly more powerful than that used for defense or flight, according to a new study. Buzzing by bees during flower pollination is significantly more ...
The diversity of bees and of the flowers they pollinate, has declined significantly in Britain and the Netherlands over the last 25 years according to research led by the University of Leeds and ...
Out in a field, tomato plants are pollinated either by wind shaking flowers or by bees, which fly into the flowers and vibrate, releasing the pollen into the air. But inside a greenhouse or indoor ...
Colorful flowers, and the insects and birds that fly among their dazzling displays, are a joy of nature. But how did early relationships between flower color and animal pollinators emerge? In a study ...

There’s something quietly alarming about a garden full of lush, flowering squash and cucumber vines that produces almost no ...
Bees aren’t the only insects pollinating red clover. Moths do about a third of the flower visits after dark, new research suggests. The findings, detailed in the July Biology Letters, come as a ...
Fertilizers may change the way flowers "look" to bees and discourage them from pollinating, a study suggests. Flowers attract bees using small electric fields that bees can learn to recognize. The ...
