    Sammanfattning : There is growing concern that the worldwide loss in biodiversity will harm the stability of the ecosystems, and thereby, the carrying capacity and critical ecosystem services the biosphere provides. Phytoplankton (microalgae) in lakes and oceans are arguably the most important primary producers. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Importance of bumble bee community evenness for crop pollination : a simulation analysis of Swedish red clover seed production

    Nyckelord :bumble bee; Bombus; community; evenness; biodiversity-ecosystem function; diversity-stability; diversity-productivity; overyielding; productivity; stability; biodiversity; selection effect; species asynchrony; portfolio effect;

    Sammanfattning : The red clover seed production systems are dependent on pollinators for increase in red clover seed yield and its stability. When compared to domesticated honey bees, the wild bumble bees are highly efficient in pollinating the red clover crop due to its relatively longer tongue length. Longer dependence on single pollinator species i.e. LÄS MER
