pollination

The new research provides early evidence that climate change may be playing a role in driving down pollination.

这项新的研究提供了初步证据，气候变化可能是促使授粉减少的一个因素。

They say there is risk of 'gene pollution' — where the inserted gene of GM plants affects non-target plants of similar kinds via pollination.

他们说存在“基因污染”的危险——插入基因片段的转基因作物通过授粉途径对类似的非目标作物产生影响。

This is sobering because it suggests that pollination is vulnerable even in a relatively pristine environment that is free of pesticides and human disturbance but still subject to climate change.

这是发人深省的，它表明授粉过程极易被打乱，甚至在一个相对平静安定的环境，没有农药和人为干扰，但仍然受到气候变化的影响。
