CropPol: A dynamic, open and global database on crop pollination

Allen-Perkins, A., Magrach, A., Dainese, M., Garibaldi, L. A., Kleijn, D., Rader, R., … Bartomeus, I. (2022, February 17). ECOLOGY.

By: A. Allen-Perkins*, A. Magrach*, M. Dainese*, L. Garibaldi*, D. Kleijn*, R. Rader*, J. Reilly*, R. Winfree* ...

author keywords: agricultural management; bees; crop production; flower visiting insects; pollination; pollinator biodiversity
MeSH headings : Animals; Bees; Crops, Agricultural; Ecosystem; Flowers; Insecta; Pollination
TL;DR: This is the most comprehensive open global data set on measurements of crop flower visitors, crop pollinators and pollination to date, and the authors encourage researchers to add more datasets to this database in the future. (via Semantic Scholar)

Crop production in the USA is frequently limited by a lack of pollinators

By: J. Reilly*, D. Artz*, D. Biddinger*, K. Bobiwash*, N. Boyle*, C. Brittain*, J. Brokaw*, J. Campbell* ...

author keywords: pollination limitation; economic value; wild bees; crop yield; ecosystem services; honeybee
MeSH headings : Agriculture; Animals; Bees; Crops, Agricultural; Food Supply; Pollination; United States
TL;DR: It is found that pollinator declines could translate directly into decreased yields or production for most of the crops studied, and that wild species contribute substantially to pollination of most study crops in major crop-producing regions. (via Semantic Scholar)

Wild Bee Visitation Rates Exceed Pollination Thresholds in Commercial Cucurbita Agroecosystems

JOURNAL OF ECONOMIC ENTOMOLOGY, 113(2), 562–574.

By: C. McGrady*, R. Troyer* & S. Fleischer*

author keywords: agricultural entomology; crop pollination; pollination; social insects; vegetable entomology
MeSH headings : Agriculture; Animals; Bees; Cucurbita; Female; Flowers; Pollination; Seasons
TL;DR: Evaluated wild bee pollination activity in wholesale, commercial pumpkin fields over 3 yr, synthesized existing literature to estimate minimum ‘pollination thresholds’ per taxa and determined that each of the most active pollinator taxa exceeded these thresholds independently.
