The InBIO Barcoding Initiative Database: contribution to the knowledge on DNA b...
Rosa, Paolo; Wood, Thomas; Silva, Teresa Luísa L.; Veríssimo, Joana; Mata, Vanessa A.; Michez, Denis; Beja, Pedro; Ferreira, SóniaDNA barcoding technologies have provided a powerful tool for the fields of ecology and systematics. Here, we present a part of the InBIO Barcoding Initiative Database: contribution to the knowledge on DNA barcodes of cuckoo wasps (Hymenoptera, Chrysididae) dataset representing 144 specimens and 103 species, covering approximately 44% of the Iberian and 21% of the European fauna. The InBIO Barcoding Initiative (...
Genomic Patterns of Iberian Wild Bees Reveal Levels of Diversity, Differentiati...
Sousa, Paulo de; Henriques, André; Silva, Sara E.; Carvalheiro, Luísa G.; Smagghe, Guy; Michez, Denis; Wood, Thomas J.; Paulo, Octávio S.We used a population genomic approach to unravel the population structure, genetic differentiation, and genetic diversity of three widespread wild bee species across the Iberian Peninsula, Andrena agilissima, Andrena flavipes and Lasioglossum malachurum. Our results demonstrated that genetic lineages in the Ebro River valley or near the Pyrenees mountains are different from the rest of Iberia. This relatively c...

Base de datos de abejas ibéricas
Bartomeus, Ignasi; Lanuza, Jose B.; Wood, Thomas J.; Carvalheiro, Luisa; Molina, Francisco P.; Collado, Miguel Ángel; Aguado-Martín, Luis OscarLas abejas son un grupo extremadamente diverso con más de 1000 especies descritas en la península ibérica. Además, son excelentes polinizadores y aportan numerosos servicios ecosistémicos fundamentales para la mayoría de ecosistemas terrestres. Debido a los diversos cambios ambientales inducidos por el ser humano, existen evidencias del declive de algunas de sus poblaciones para ciertas especies. Sin embargo, c...
Drastic shifts in the Belgian bumblebee community over the last century
Rollin, Orianne; Vray, Sarah; Dendoncker, Nicolas; Michez, Denis; Dufrêne, Marc; Rasmont, PierreBumblebees are undergoing strong declines in Europe caused by habitat loss and fragmentation, agricultural intensification, and climate change. Long-term records are necessary to estimate population trends precisely and to propose appropriate mitigation strategies. Based on an original database of 173,788 specimens from museum collections, scientific monitoring, and opportunistic citizen data from 1810 to 2016,...
Soil eutrophication shaped the composition of pollinator assemblages during the...
Carvalheiro, Luisa G.; Biesmeijer, Jacobus C.; Franzén, Markus; Aguirre‐Gutiérrez, Jesús; Garibaldi, Lucas A.; Helm, Aveliina; Michez, DenisAtmospheric nitrogen deposition and other sources of environmental eutrophication have increased substantially over the past century worldwide, notwithstanding the recent declining trends in Europe. Despite the recognized susceptibility of plants to eutrophication, few studies evaluated how impacts propagate to consumers, such as pollinators. Here we aim to test if soil eutrophication contributes to the tempora...
Ensuring access to high-quality resources reduces the impacts of heat stress on...
Vanderplanck, Maryse; Martinet, Baptiste; Carvalheiro, Luisa; Rasmont, Pierre; Barraud, Alexandre; Renaudeau, Coraline; Michez, DenisPollinators are experiencing declines globally, negatively affecting the reproduction of wild plants and crop production. Well-known drivers of these declines include climatic and nutritional stresses, such as a change of dietary resources due to the degradation of habitat quality. Understanding potential synergies between these two important drivers is needed to improve predictive models of the future effects ...
