The complete mitochondrial genome of Bombus filchnerae (Hymenoptera: Apidae) and phylogenetic analysis

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2021
Here, we report the complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of Bombus filchnerae (Hymenoptera: Apidae). The genome size of B. filchnerae was 18,553 bp with 88.7% A + T content, containing 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 tRNA genes, two rRNA genes ...

Acute toxicity data of common agricultural insecticides to Japanese wild bees

open access: yesData in Brief, 2023
Although numerous ecotoxicological assessments of European honeybee (Apis mellifera L.) have been performed, Japanese wild bees are less well studied in this regard.

A failed invasion? Commercially introduced pollinators in Southern France [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The natural diversity of Bombus terrestris subspecies could be under threat from the commercialisation of bumblebees. Therefore, to determine whether commercially imported bumblebees are able to establish and spread, we carried out

La importancia del color: morfos florales, tasas de visita y éxito reproductivo en el arbusto Sarothamnus scoparius

open access: yesEcología Austral, 2015
El estudio de la variación intraespecífica del color de las flores nos permite comprender mejor el papel de los polinizadores como agentes de selección, y su efecto sobre la abundancia de las variantes florales.

Photoreceptor spectral sensitivity in the bumblebee, Bombus impatiens (Hymenoptera: Apidae). [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The bumblebee Bombus impatiens is increasingly used as a model in comparative studies of colour vision, or in behavioural studies relying on perceptual discrimination of colour.

Parasite Prevalence May Drive the Biotic Impoverishment of New England (USA) Bumble Bee Communities

open access: yesInsects, 2021
Numerous studies have reported a diversity of stressors that may explain continental-scale declines in populations of native pollinators, particularly those in the genus Bombus.

Cross-mating between the alien bumblebee Bombus terrestris and two native Japanese bumblebees, B. hypocrita sapporensis and B. cryptarum florilegus, in the Nemuro Peninsula, Japan

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
The rapid naturalization of Bombus terrestris across the Nemuro Peninsula has led to a decline in two closely related native Japanese species, namely Bombus hypocrita sapporensis and Bombus cryptarum florilegus, both belonging to the common subgenus ...

Potential application of the bumblebee foraging recruitment pheromone for commercial greenhouse pollination [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Commercial bumblebee colonies are important crop pollinators. Here we assess whether application of artificial foraging recruitment pheromone can increase foraging activity in Bombus terrestris colonies on a relevant timescale for commercial pollination.
