Human impacts go beyond fragmentation of habitat to other modifications. We are interested in how anthropogenic impacts from farming to logging to cattle grazing affect bee communities and pollination ...

When the bee flies off and lands on another orchid it deposits the pollen, allowing the flowers to reproduce. Despite the elaborate deception, bee orchids also engage in self-pollination, transferring ...

Lots of plants rely on insects like bees to reproduce. To make a seed, a flower needs to be pollinated. This means that pollen from one flower needs to travel to another. Bees are very important ...

If you’ve noticed the TRX-DUO software-defined radio transceiver, you might have wondered how it stacks up to other choices like Red Pitaya or HackRF. [Tech Minds] obliges with a review of the ...

Impeccable. Equipment and preparation: You will need a 12-hole muffin tin or cupcake tin. Pitaya is widely grown in the tropics and, when eaten near to where it is harvested, is incredibly fragrant.

Why insects are so crucial to life on Earth In the US, bees of all sorts are said to account for 75% of the pollination of the fruits, nuts and vegetables grown in the country. It is a similar ...

In a recent collaboration, HighVolt, a leader in testing and measurement solutions, and Red Pitaya, known for its adaptable hardware and software tools, demonstrated how real-time processing is ...

Pollination is, however, a fundamental process for the survival of our ecosystems. Nearly 90% of the world’s wild flowering plant species depend, entirely, or at least in part, on animal ...

2009). Plant-pollinator interactions are good examples of mutualistic interactions because nearly three-quarters of all extant flowering plants (angiosperms) receive pollination services from ...

Therefore, long stems represent an adaptation to aid bat pollination. "This work suggests long stems make bat-flowers more 'visible' to bats in the same way that bright red petals help ...

But how did these immobile organisms manage to spread so far? One answer is pollination, or plant sexual reproduction. Pollinators—typically wind, water, and animals—carry pollen from one ...
