The pollen beetle, Meligethes aeneus F. (Coleoptera: Nitidulidae), is an important pest of oilseed rape crops throughout Europe. It poses a particular threat to crops of Synergy, a composite hybrid oilseed rape consisting of 20% pollinator plants and 80% male sterile hybrid plants, as adults and larvae consume the pollen necessary to pollinate the male sterile plants.
