Two dark matter experiments have spotted signs of neutrinos knocking into atomic nuclei in their detectors. The finding portends a future obstacle for the detectors, Emily Conover reported in “ ‘Fog’ ...
What looks like a plant’s failed fruit may actually be a clever deal that lets both the plant and its pollinating beetles ...
Pollinators are less likely to land on flowers sprayed with fertilizers or pesticides as they can detect electric field changes around the flower, researchers have found. Pollinators are less likely ...
Pollination by animals contributes to a third of global food production, but little research has been done into the extent to which the identity of pollinators, pollen and crop varieties influence ...
Why have some plant species changed pollinators in their evolution? An international team of researchers studied the reproductive systems of three sister species pairs, where one species is pollinated ...
Scientists from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have developed advanced robotic insects that could aid farming through artificial pollination. They could prove especially useful in the ...
Researchers may have discovered the first example of a frog that pollinates flowering plants. By Sofia Quaglia On warm evenings near Rio de Janeiro, you might find milk fruit trees covered in brownish ...
