Fig. 5: Pesticide risk in bee-collected pollen and nectar.

From: Ecological traits interact with landscape context to determine bees’ pesticide risk

Fig. 5

a, Results show that pesticide risk was greater from pollen than nectar, but the risk correlated between sample materials. As in Fig. 4b, points in a are scaled by their respective MCR, where a smaller point indicates that a single compound dominates the pesticide mixture risk. Outlined squares (a) depict mean log transformed risk (nectar n = 70 and pollen n = 61). Predictions and 95% confidence intervals (a,b) come from linear mixed-effects models with risk log transformed. b, We re-analysed data with the left-hand outlier removed and the results were qualitatively unchanged and the model fit improved.
