Published: 2011-10-04 | ISBN: 9400719418 | PDF | 821 pages | 5.76 MB
This main division has a wider approach not strictly focused in successi~ crop production compared to other books that are strictly oriented towards bees, nevertheless has a generalist approach to pollination biology. It furthermore highlights relationships between introduced and native pollinators and consequences of such introductions attached communities of wild pollinating insects. The chapters forward biochemical basis of plant-pollination interaction, pollination energetics, climate change and pollinators and pollinators of the same kind with bioindicators of ecosystem functioning provide a base since future insights into pollination biology. The role of honeybees and native bees on crop pollination, value of bee pollination, planned honeybee pollination, non-bee pollinators, security of pollinators, pollination in cages, pollination despite hybrid seed production, the problem of diseases, genetically modified plants and bees, the role of bees in improving fare security and livelihoods, capacity building and awareness because pollinators are also discussed.
