Abstract:
Sweeten our crops. Sustain a high diversity of beneficials through "sweet food" from plants. A sweet tooth overhangs the terrestrial ecosystems, it is nursed by plants constantly producing pollen and nectar and indirectly honeydew and honey. Truly the "green" Earth is "a land flowing with milk and honey" for myriads of species: from lizards to bees, from birds to flies, from man to ants, through marsupials, beetles, bats and so on. This sweet plant-provided food is the powerful basis of pollination and of many other multi-trophic interactions.
