Garden, greenhouse, or climate chamber? Experimental conditions influence whether genetic differences are phenotypically expressed

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Expression of genetic differences depends on the experimental environment as seen in flowering time differences between ancestors and descendants that emerge in climate chambers but not in greenhouse or garden conditions. Abstract Common‐environment experiments are important to study genetically based phenotypic variation within and among plant ...

Per-visit pollinator performance and regional importance of wild Bombus and Andrena (Melandrena) compared to the managed honey bee in New York apple orchards

Apidologie, 2016
Declines in honey bee health and increasing demand for pollination services highlight a need to optimize crop pollination by wild bees. Apple is an economically important crop in eastern North America, requires insect pollination, and is visited by a ...

Seasonal shifts in mitochondrial and reactive oxygen species metabolism are linked to ultrastructural remodelling in honey bees (Apis mellifera)

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Seasonal changes profoundly reshape honey bee mitochondrial metabolism. In winter, bees shift from complex I (CI)‐ to mitochondrial glycerol‐3‐phosphate dehydrogenase (mG3PDH)‐ and complex II (CII)‐linked respiration. Despite lower CI‐linked respiration ATP production is maintained, suggesting increased energetic efficiency in ...

The flexible, the stereotyped and the in‐between: putting together the combinatory tool use origins hypothesis

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1235-1254, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Tool use research has long made the distinction between tool using that is considered learned and flexible, and that which appears to be instinctive and stereotyped. However, animals with an inherited tool use specialisation can exhibit flexibility, while tool use that is spontaneously innovated can be limited in its expression and facilitated

The impacts of biological invasions

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1255-1310, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

Habitat and forage associations of a naturally colonising insect pollinator, the tree bumblebee Bombus hypnorum.

PLoS ONE, 2014
Bumblebees (Bombus species) are major pollinators of commercial crops and wildflowers but factors affecting their abundance, including causes of recent population declines, remain unclear.
