Buzz pollination, or floral sonication, represents a distinctive pollination system in which certain bees generate high-frequency vibrations to extract pollen from specialised floral structures. In ...

Many plants conceal their pollen, requiring pollinators to use specialized methods, such as acoustic resonance pollen ejection, to achieve pollination. Pollinators with such capabilities are mainly ...

Ongoing research into the effect of environmental change on the buzzing of bees reveals that high temperatures and exposure to heavy metals reduces the frequency (and audible pitch) of non-flight wing ...

Life is not always easy for a bee: Not all plants place their pollen outside. Some flowers have to be set to vibrating before the pollen can get out of their tube-like stamens. Certain bee species ...
