<p>Det har länge varit känt att pollinerande insekter är avgörande för produktionen av många frukter, grönsaker och baljväxter som innehåller viktiga vitaminer och mineraler. Tydliga bevis för hur minskningen av pollinatörer påverkar människor har dock varit begränsade.

Scientists use simulated dinosaurs to trigger real insect brains and test how wings originally evolved.
<p>Forskare vid Lunds universitet har kartlagt arvsmassan hos en av världens mest ovanliga bananflugor, Drosophila enhydrobia. Till skillnad från sina släktingar, som gärna håller till i köket, lever den här bananflugans larver helt under vatten. Där jagar den aktivt andra insekter. – Här snackar vi en bananfluga som har vänt upp och ner på hela […]</p>
