Identification and abiotic stress response of a glutamine synthetase gene (AccGS) from the Asiatic honeybee, Apis cerana cerana (Hymenoptera: Apidae)

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2014
Glutamine synthetase (GS) is an essential detoxification enzyme that plays an important role in stress responses; however, little information regarding the function of this enzyme in hymenopteran insects is available.

Evidence of forage distance limitations for small bees (Hymenoptera: Apidae)

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2015
The distribution of ground-nesting bees was investigated using transects of water traps in a mosaic of nesting and forage habitats at Shotover Hill in Oxfordshire, UK. The site includes a large area of ground-nesting bee activity and is adjoined on three

Longevity of starved bumblebee queens (Hymenoptera: Apidae) is shorter at high than low temperatures

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2014
Northern bumblebees (Hymenoptera: Apidae) with annual lifecycles depend both on energy stores remaining in their fat body after diapause and a few spring flowering plants.

Pollen types collected by Tetragonisca angustula (Hymenoptera: Apidae) in dry vegetation in Northeastern Brazil

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2014
Knowing the floral origin of the pollen collected by native bees in Neotropical ecosystems enables us to understand the dynamics of the interdependent relationships between the insects and the native flora.

Acttra SWD Bait Formulation Against Drosophila Suzukii and its Compatibility with Berry Pollination by the Honey Bee, Apis Mellifera

open access: yesJournal of Apicultural Science, 2021
Crop protection substances are continuously developed to prevent the decimation of non-target insect populations through insecticide use. The bait formulation Acttra SWD was created to attract the adult spotted-wing drosophila, a generalist pest of ...

Linking bacterial diversity to floral identity in the bumble bee pollen basket

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, 2021
Multitrophic interactions are ubiquitous in nature and form the basis of biodiversity. For example, bumble bees visit flowers to collect pollen, on which a variety of bacteria exist.

Exotic and predatory: a spider (Araneae: Salticidae) that preys on native stingless bees (Hymenoptera: Meliponini) in Brazil

open access: yesRevista Chilena de Entomología, 2023
Pollination is a fundamental ecosystem service for the natural balance. Bees are the main biological agents for carrying out this service. It is known that the excessive simplification process of the landscape through anthropic action hinders the ...
