Recent reviews of data on worldwide insect decline include almost no information Brazil. We gathered evidence from literature searches and a survey sent to researchers, which 96 replied 56 provided publications. present 75 instances trends recorded over an average span 11 years for aquatic 22 terrestrial insects. These time-replicated samples expert opinion based long-term local collections. Most are butterflies, bees scarab beetles. Aquatic studies several orders, usually sorted genus or...
Large clades of angiosperms are often characterized by diverse interactions with pollinators, but how these pollination systems structured phylogenetically and biogeographically is still uncertain for most families. Apocynaceae a clade >5300 species worldwide distribution. A database representing >10 % in the family was used to explore diversity pollinators evolutionary shifts across major regions. The compiled from published unpublished reports. Plants were categorized into broad then...
Identifying large-scale patterns of variation in pollinator dependence (PD) crops is important from both basic and applied perspectives. Evidence wild plants indicates that this can be structured latitudinally. Individuals populations at high latitudes may more selfed less dependent on pollinators due to higher environmental instability overall lower temperatures, conditions affect availability. However, whether pattern similarly present remains unknown. Soybean (Glycine max), one the most...
Animal pollination is an important ecosystem function and service, ensuring both the integrity of natural systems human well-being. Although many knowledge shortfalls remain, some high-quality data sets on biological interactions are now available. The development adoption standards for biodiversity metadata has promoted great advances in sharing aggregation, supporting large-scale studies science-based public policies. However, these currently not suitable to fully support interaction...
RESUMO O combate à má alimentação em todas as suas formas, que também se expressa na epidemia da obesidade, é uma das prioridades Agenda 2030 e dos Objetivos de Desenvolvimento Sustentável. Este artigo traz elementos sobre insegurança alimentar no Brasil, a partir temas relativos ao crescimento populacional, mudanças climáticas, biodiversidade sistemas alimentares tradicionais regenerativos; trata do papel movimentos sociais para garantia Direito Humano Alimentação Adequada.

ABSTRACT Mucuna (Fabaceae) has explosive flowers that open only if a pressure is applied on their wings and keel. The cacique Cacicus haemorrhous inserts its bill into flower spreading mandibles apart it opens the to take nectar. This icterine bird also preys upon caterpillars of butterfly Astraptes talus pupates within flowers. Foraging with use movements nectar or insects an adequate mechanism pollinate We suggest plausible behavioral scenario for pollination relationship between icterines...
Este trabalho apresenta um estudo florístico e fenológico das plantas ornamentais arbóreas arbustivas, visitadas por abelhas no campus da Universidade Estadual de Campinas, São Paulo. Os registros sobre as foram feitos maio 1999 a abril 2000, obtendo-se 42 espécies plantas. Cerca 43% apresentou pico floração período úmido, 33% seco 24% em ambos os períodos, não havendo sazonalidade marcada. A maioria espécies, cerca 72%, padrão anual. As famílias mais representativas Leguminosae Bombacaceae...
Abstract Pollination services are affected by landscape context, farming management and pollinator community structure, all of which impact flower visitation rates, pollen deposition final production. We studied these processes in Argentina for highbush blueberry crops, depend on pollinators to produce marketable yields. how land cover honeybee stocking influence the abundance wild managed using structural equation modelling disentangle cascading effects through contribute fruit number,...
Pollen transport to a receptive stigma can be facilitated through different pollinators, which submits the pollen selection pressures. This study aimed associate and morphology with zoophily in species of tribe Phaseoleae. Species genera Erythrina, Macroptilium Mucuna pollinators were chosen. grains stigmas examined under light microscopy (anatomy), scanning electronic (surface analyses) transmission (ultrastructure). The three differ terms wall ornamentation, size, aperture, thickness wall,...
Crop pollination is one of Nature's Contributions to People (NCP) that reconciles biodiversity conservation and agricultural production. NCP benefits vary across space, including among distinct political-administrative levels within nations. Moreover, initiatives restore ecosystems may enhance provision, such as crop delivered by native pollinators. We mapped demand (PD), diversity pollinator-dependent crops, vegetation deficit (VD) (vis-a-vis Brazilian legal requirements) all 5570...
Abstract Nectar production dynamics can show inter- and intraspecific variation, which be associated with environmental ecological factors the ultrastructural diversity of floral nectary. In this context, we recorded nectar from a morphofunctional perspective using hummingbird-pollinated Billbergia distachia (Bromeliaceae). The scale-throated hermit Phaethornis eurynome was only visitor observed, indicating specialized pollination system. showed significant differences between day night,...
Abstract A new species, Mucuna japira A. M. G. Azevedo, Agostini & Sazima, is described from Brazil. It has features similar to sloanei Fawc. Rendle, but pseudo‐racemose inflorescences and the standard petal measures ¾ of length keel, whereas umbellate ½ keel. This species restricted Atlantic forest coastal São Paulo, Southeastern key Brazilian provided.
Abstract Nectar is an important floral resource in the establishment of plant-pollinator interactions. Recent studies have shown that nectariferous tissues are independent ABC model development and ecological interactions can modify their expression. In this sense, it would be interesting to study generalist species relation nectar production nectary morpho-anatomy verify strategies used attract different pollinator groups. We recorded dynamics Aechmea vanhoutteana (Bromeliaceae) from a...
Resumo O sucesso reprodutivo das plantas pode estar relacionado a diversos fatores. Dessa forma, o presente trabalho teve como objetivo analisar os diferentes morfos florais apresentados por Solanum melongena (híbrido Nápoli) no contexto da biologia reprodutiva e polinização. estudo foi realizado em Estiva Gerbi, São Paulo. Os dados de morfometria floral foram coletados com auxílio paquímetro manual estereomicroscópio. Para determinar sistema reprodutivo, verificou-se formação tubos...
