This study uses metabarcoding to analyze wild bee pollination in sunflower crops, finding that pollination diversity is influenced by flowering stages and bee traits like size and sociality.

This study compares dry and brine pitfall traps for carabid diet analysis using metabarcoding, finding higher PCR success in dry traps but similar prey detection.

This study examines substitution rate variation in procellariiform seabirds and finds that it is not solely explained by body mass, population size, or life history traits, but is moderately correlated with flight efficiency.

This study shows that carabid beetle community assembly in annual crops varies seasonally, influenced by crop type and phenology, with strong functional filtering on body size and resource acquisition traits.

This study uses metabarcoding of faecal samples to analyze the diet of the Westland petrel, revealing seasonal and spatial dietary variation and potential links to commercial fishing activities.

This paper develops a breakpoint-based method to detect ontogenetic shifts in honey bee foraging behavior using lifelong monitoring data and compares it to threshold-based methods.

The paper models the effects of pollinators and agrochemicals on oilseed rape yields and economics, finding pollinators improve both yield and gross margins more than agrochemicals.

This study shows that biodiversity, not just abundance, is crucial for maintaining ecosystem services like pollination and pest control, which support crop yields.

The paper develops a model to study trade-offs and synergies in ecosystem services in agroecosystems, showing how landscape composition affects service stability and crop production.
