It can be hard to get bees to do their vital work in indoor farms or greenhouses. Instead, the plants may need a little robotic assistance to reproduce. Out in a field, tomato plants are pollinated ...
These findings could be used to prevent plant inbreeding and promote genetic diversity in future conservation efforts.
