Canola (Brassica napus) is one of the important oil seed crops cultivated in many parts of Iran. One of the main problems of seed production of canola is pollination and fertilization of flowers. Insects are the major pollinators. In order to study the fauna of insect pollinators of 3 cultivars of canola including Talaye, Okapi and S.L.M. and the difference between the attractiveness of these c...

متن کاملEndosymbionts and honey bee colony losses?
Honey bees, Apis mellifera, are essential pollinators for the maintenance of natural biodiversity and agriculture [1]. Colony losses witnessed throughout the Northern hemisphere are therefore worrying [2], especially because no single driver has yet emerged as the definitive cause [3]. Interactions between viruses, ectoparasitic mites and microsporidian endoparasites are most likely key factors...
متن کاملFarming practices influence wild pollinator populations on squash and pumpkin.
Recent declines in managed honey bee, Apis mellifera L., colonies have increased interest in the current and potential contribution of wild bee populations to the pollination of agricultural crops. Because wild bees often live in agricultural fields, their population density and contribution to crop pollination may be influenced by farming practices, especially those used to reduce the populati...
متن کاملLack of pollinators limits fruit production in commercial blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum).
Modern agriculture relies on domesticated pollinators such as the honey bee (Apis mellifera L.), and to a lesser extent on native pollinators, for the production of animal-pollinated crops. There is growing concern that pollinator availability may not keep pace with increasing agricultural production. However, whether crop production is in fact pollen-limited at the field scale has rarely been ...
