Shade coffee farms promote genetic diversity of native trees
when caterpillars fed on fruit-bearing pepper plants. Here, although initially feeding on leaves, the beet armyworms soon moved into the maturing fruits (Figure 1C). Our results indicate that visiting honeybees provide plants with a totally unexpected advantage: bees flying around plants inhibit the feeding intensity of herbivorous caterpillars, resulting in a clear reduction of leaf damage. Th...
متن کاملNative bees mediate long-distance pollen dispersal in a shade coffee landscape mosaic.
Coffee farms are often embedded within a mosaic of agriculture and forest fragments in the world's most biologically diverse tropical regions. Although shade coffee farms can potentially support native pollinator communities, the degree to which these pollinators facilitate gene flow for native trees is unknown. We examined the role of native bees as vectors of gene flow for a reproductively sp...
متن کاملAnthracnose of Shade Trees
Anthracnose is one of the most common and important foliage diseases of shade trees in Iowa. Symptoms of anthracnose are often referred to as “leaf blights” or “leaf spots” and are most serious on sycamore, ash, maple, white and bur oak, and walnut. Linden, hickory, elm, red and black oak, and other deciduous trees also are susceptible, although anthracnose is less common and damaging on these ...
