Oilseed rape (Brassica napus) as a resource for farmland insect pollinators: Quantifying floral traits in conventional varieties and breeding systems

Abstract:

© 2017 The Authors. Global Change Biology Bioenergy Published by John Wiley & Sons Ltd. Oilseed rape (OSR; Brassica napus L.) is a major crop in temperate regions and provides an important source of nutrition to many of the yield-enhancing insect flower visitors that consume floral nectar.
