The orientation of swimming bi-flagellates in shear flows [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Biflagellated algae swim in mean directions that are governed by their environments. For example, many algae can swim upward on average (gravitaxis) and toward downwelling fluid (gyrotaxis) via a variety of mechanisms.

Analytical approximations for the orientation distribution of small dipolar particles in steady shear flows [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
Analytic approximations are obtained to solutions of the steady Fokker-Planck equation describing the probability density functions for the orientation of dipolar particles in a steady, low-Reynolds-number shear flow and a uniform external field.

Glyphosate perturbs the gut microbiota of honey bees

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2018
Significance Increased mortality of honey bee colonies has been attributed to several factors but is not fully understood. The herbicide glyphosate is expected to be innocuous to animals, including bees, because it targets an enzyme only found in plants ...

The interaction of thin-film flow, bacterial swarming and cell differentiation in colonies of Serratia liquefaciens [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
The rate of expansion of bacterial colonies of S. liquefaciens is investigated in terms of a mathematical model that combines biological as well as hydrodynamic processes. The relative importance of cell differentiation and production of an extracellular

The relative performance of sampling methods for native bees: an empirical test and review of the literature

open access: yes, 2020
Many bee species are declining globally, but to detect trends and monitor bee assemblages, robust sampling methods are required. Numerous sampling methods are used, but a critical review of their relative effectiveness is lacking.

The Bees of Australia [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1906
UP to the beginning of 1905, 224 species of wild bees had been recorded from Australia, no less than 183 of them having been described by F. Smith, of the British Museum. I had the opportunity in 1904 to study Smith's types at the British Museum, and since then I have worked up the unnamed Australian material belonging to that institution, with the ...

Bees for the Future

open access: yesOpen Schools Journal for Open Science, 2020
In the academic year 2018/2019, students from Escola Secundária Jaime Moniz studied the importance of bees for the future using digital tools, platforms, and a simulator that represented the influence of the increase or decrease of flowers to the bee population and the other way around.

Higher antibody titres against Pseudogymnoascus destructans are associated with less white-nose syndrome skin lesions in Palearctic bats

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2023
IntroductionSerological tests can be used to test whether an animal has been exposed to an infectious agent, and whether its immune system has recognized and produced antibodies against it.
