Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Janine Melanie Schwarz"
Janine Melanie Schwarz's research primarily focuses on the impact of agrochemicals, specifically pesticides and fungicides, on pollinator health and behavior, particularly among solitary bees and bumblebees.
Her studies investigate the effects of newer insecticides like sulfoximines and common fungicides on pollinator fitness, emphasizing the interactions between these chemicals and environmental factors such as flowering resources.
Recent findings indicate that while sulfoxaflor and fungicides do not adversely affect solitary bee fitness, the sensitivity of bumblebees to these chemicals can be modulated by the availability of flowering resources, highlighting the complexity of stressor interactions in agricultural ecosystems.
