Biosynthesis of the fatty acid components of the Apis mellifera mandibular gland pheromones takes place in a stepwise manner. Differential gene expression in the mandibular gland tissue of workers from two subspecies of African honey bees with differing reproductive potentials and at two age groups was investigated.

Effects of the alarm pheromone on Triatoma pallidipennis behaviour
T. pallidipennis performs behavioural acts in response to volatiles emitted by mechanically disturbed conspecifics. T. pallidipennis shows a repellent response when exposed to volatiles emitted by mechanically disturbed conspecifics. Isobutyric and propanoic acids can be used as repellents of T. pallidipennis. Abstract Adults of some Triatomine species,

Partículas radioativas no mel de abelhas(Apis mellifera L.)
A liberação de partículas radioativas artificiais para a natureza pode contaminar os insetos, seus produtos e, conseqüentemente, o homem. A apicultura é dependente das plantas, ficando as abelhas expostas aos poluentes liberados na natureza que as intoxicam e contaminam seus produtos.

ABSTRACT Animal‐mediated pollination is essential for the production of many specialty crops, with insects, primarily bees, serving as the predominant pollinators in many agroecosystems. However, increasing management problems with honey bees and declines in native bee populations due to various environmental stressors have highlighted the importance ...

ABSTRACT The macauba palm (Acrocomia aculeata, Arecaceae) is a Neotropical native oil palm, increasingly important in Central and South America due to rising demand for raw materials and its potential for bioenergy. Understanding its pollinator ecology is crucial to identify new areas for cultivation. This study examines the structure of floral visitor

ABSTRACT Current control of the invasive pest Drosophila suzukii relies primarily on insecticides, including the incorporation of phagostimulant baits. The impact of insecticidal bait sprays on beneficial insects in crops is largely unknown. In a laboratory and field trial, we exposed non‐target insects to insecticides with or without bait and compared
