New paper alert‼️Collaboration with @nicrodemo.bsky.social and Fernando 🐝🌼✨️
I’m still mesmerized by the beauty of this phenomenon. Being able to see the Aurora Borealis from my home in Uppsala is truly incredible.

A paper in Nature Ecology & Evolution reports insights into how ancient plants lived around 252 million years ago at the time of the Permian–Triassic mass extinction, the most severe loss of biodiversity in Earth’s history. go.nature.com/4cGiEY5 #PlantScience 🌍🧪
The new bee documentary is out today in Disney+. Our buzzing bees did make the cut at the end! It is really nice to see the clip of how bees use previously collected nectar to pack pollen even in nectarless flowers! There are lots of other cool things in this two-part film!
🎉Good news! The paper ‘Intra-individual variation in pollen availability: an experimental analysis of its impact on plant–pollinator interactions’ in @annbot.bsky.social by González-Almansa Laredo et al. is now #free for 2 weeks 🧵1/9

Dynamics of tropical forest usually means forest area decline.For restoration it is important to study cases where forest regain areas of abandoned land.This is a process more complicated than it might seem, and it is studied in a new thesis from Uppsala Univ. by Laura Moro

Morphological data are essential for reconstructing evolutionary histories, particularly for fossil taxa, as they represent the primary source of information for integrating extinct lineages into ...
Variability in pollen production within individual plants and their effects on pollinator visitation. New paper just out! academic.oup.com/aob/advance-...
AbstractBackground and Aims. Intra-individual variation in the quantity and quality of floral rewards can affect pollinator foraging and plant fitness. Few
