Influences of oilseed rape area and aggregation on pollinator abundance and reproductive success of a co-flowering wild plant

Mass-flowering crops such as oilseed rape (Brassica napus) are attractive for some pollinators. Consequently, flowering oilseed rape fields may compete for pollinators with co-flowering wild plants occurring in adjacent non-crop habitats. We evaluated the influence of flowering oilseed rape through both its area and its configuration in the landscape on pollinator abundance and on the reproductive success of a co-flowering wild plant...
