TL;DR: Overall, wild insects pollinated crops more effectively; an increase in wild insect visitation enhanced fruit set by twice as much as an equivalent increase in honey bee visitation.

TL;DR: It is shown that, while the contribution of wild bees to crop production is significant, service delivery is restricted to a limited subset of all known bee species, suggesting that cost-effective management strategies to promote crop pollination should target a different set of species than management Strategies to promote threatened bees.

TL;DR: Both organic farming and in-field plant diversification exerted the strongest effects on pollinators and predators, suggesting these management schemes can facilitate ecosystem service providers without augmenting herbivore (pest) populations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pollinator body size mediates the scale at which land use drives crop pollination services
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors measured abundance of native, wild bee pollinators and the pollination services they provided to highbush blueberry Vaccinium corymbosum L. crops at 16 sites that varied in the proportion of surrounding agricultural land cover at both the field scale (300m radius) and the landscape scale (1500m radius).
Journal ArticleDOI
Response diversity to land use occurs but does not consistently stabilise ecosystem services provided by native pollinators
TL;DR: The results suggest that either response diversity is not the primary stabilising mechanism in the system, or that new measures of response diversity are needed that better capture the stabilising effects it provides.
