We used linear mixed effects models to assess the relationship between bee abundance and diversity and the average weight of strawberry fruits. Models were fit separately for bee abundance and diversity as fixed effects along with pollination treatment, apple bloom stage and location. Following model simplification the final models retained only the main effects of abundance or diversity. To account for non-independence of samples and the nested experimental design structure, random effects in the final model included the nested effects of stage within pollination treatment within the natural habitat proximity variable within farm.
