Possible mechanisms of pollination failure in hybrid carrot seed and implications for industry in a changing climate.
Approximately one-third of our food globally comes from insect-pollinated crops. The dependence on pollinators has been linked to yield instability, which could potentially become worse in a changing climate. Insect-pollinated crops produced via hybrid breeding (20% of fruit and vegetable production...
