Pollen Foraging by Bumble Bee Queens During a Critical Nesting Period Revealed by DNA Metabarcoding. [PDF]
During the nest‐founding stage of the bumble bee (Apidae: Bombus) life cycle, solitary queen bees gather floral pollen to feed their offspring in nascent colonies. Here, in the first study of queen pollen loads in the southeastern U.S., we use next‐generation sequencing to characterize the pollen collected by wild bumble bee queens across northern and ...
