Fresh global-analysis admirably lead by @eeraertsmaxime.bsky.social (+ @oliviabernauer.bsky.social PhD data) indicates native bee pollination services leads to higher-quality apples = improved weight & seed set. How do you like them apples? 🍎 besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

Five 3-year Postdoc positions open at @ebdonana.bsky.social. I am happy to sponsor and mentor good candidates working in my field, but note that these are quite independent positions aimed at helping stabilize new researchers in the system. www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/4nqkq...

🐞 🐝 I'm recruiting students to join my lab at the University of Minnesota! Hoping to bring on 2-3 MS or PhD students (MS a pre-req for PhD students). Take a peek at the opportunities available and feel free to reach out with questions. Please share widely! jhemberger.github.io/ibug_lab_web...

We hebben een #vacature voor 6 maanden voor een onderzoeksmedewerker bij het team Landschapsecologie en Natuurbeheer; je draait mee in de ploeg die de technische ondersteuning biedt aan het onderzoek.Solliciteer voor 13 juli: www.vlaanderen.be/werken-voor-...

We're hiring two PhD and two postdoc positions! Interested in pollinators, soils, agroecology, pesticides? Then come and work with us and with collaborators and all over Europe! stanleyecologylab.org/vacancies #findaphd Please share!

Does anyone have any good references for what a robust sampling efficiency is for field studies with pollinators?

📄 We just enriched our library with a new resource titled Crop Diversification for Pollinator Conservation. 🌿 It looks at the mechanisms and current evidence base of how increasing the diversity of crops can benefit pollinator biodiversity. Check it out here: wildposh.eu/library #WildPoshResources

Here is the very first publication of the SCAPE joint special issue of JPE with @nordicjbotany.bsky.social (scheduled late 2025/early 2026) - an extremely well-thought editorial by James Thomson on how we should think about the pollination crisis: doi.org/10.26786/192...

Interested in #Biodiversity, #EcosystemServices and #Sustainable #Agriculture? We offer a postdoctoral researcher position on ecological synthesis in our lab🧪 @funcagroeco.bsky.social

📢 Viewpoint in New Phyt. on polyploid establishment! Key take-homes🧵 1. In contrast to earlier hypotheses that pollinators can help new polyploids establish, we suggest that pollinators mainly prevent polyploid establishment because outcrossing increases the strength of minority cytotype exclusion.
