Pesticides but not microplastics affect pollination in rape seed production in China

Wei Lin; Xueqing He; Jilan Hu; et al. Environmental Research Food Systems 2025. doi:10.1088/2976-601x/ae2f64

Other claims from this paper (3)

Intervention effect Realistic exposure levels of microplastic had no individual or synergistic effect on reproductive performance of solitary bees.
Intervention effect None of the treatments detectably affected rapeseed yield.
Recommendation Diversified flower resources in Chinese agricultural landscapes are an important policy argument for pollinator protection.
