The Development and Validation of an LC-MS/MS Method for the Determination of Glyphosate, AMPA, and Glufosinate in Honey Following FMOC-Cl Derivatization: Application to Italian Samples

open access: yesFoods
Glyphosate-based herbicides are among the most widely used pesticides worldwide, but data on their occurrence in food products, particularly honey, remain limited.

Honeybees directly outcompete other flower visitors through interference competition on shared resource

open access: yesEcological Entomology, EarlyView.
The outcomes of encounters between honeybees and other flower visitors were observed on two plant species. Pollinators either win, lose or share a resource. Competitive interactions led to greater than expected ‘wins’ for honeybees. The honeybee displaced or gave chase when interacting with another pollinator in at least 20% of winning outcomes ...

First molecular detection of Chronic Bee Paralysis Virus (CBPV) in Iran

open access: yesArchives of Razi Institute, 2015
Among the viruses infecting honey bees, chronic bee paralysis virus (CBPV) is known to induce significant losses in honey bee colonies. CBPV is an unclassified polymorphic single stranded RNA virus. Using RT-PCR, the virus infections in honey bees can be

Why we Should Study Solitary Species to Understand the Costs of Group‐Living

open access: yesEthology, EarlyView.
It's easier to measure the benefits than the costs of a trait. Solitary species benefit by avoiding the costs of group living. Thus, measuring benefits of solitary living informs us about the costs of group living. ABSTRACT While for decades behavioral ecologists have studied the benefits of group living, measuring its costs has been more difficult. It

Syntactic awareness as a mediator of reading–writing relations in young Chinese L2 learners

open access: yesForeign Language Annals, EarlyView.
Abstract This longitudinal study examined the mediating role of syntactic awareness in reading–writing relations among young learners of Chinese as a second language (L2). A total of 177 students from non‐Chinese‐speaking backgrounds in Hong Kong were assessed annually from Grades 4 to 6 on word‐level literacy (character reading, spelling), sentence ...

Novel eDNA approaches to monitor Western honey bee (Apis mellifera L.) microbial and arthropod communities

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA
Pests and pathogens are a continuous threat to the health of Western honey bee Apis mellifera L. Monitoring honey bee colonies for arthropod pests, disease‐causing bacteria and fungi, and early detection of new invasions is essential to maintain the ...

Seasonal shifts in network structure and species roles in a tropical island plant–flower visitor community Cambios estacionales en la estructura de la red de interacciones entre plantas y visitantes florales y en los roles de las especies en una comunidad insular tropical

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Constant visitation rates across the flowering season masked major shifts in plant and flower visitor interaction structure, specialization, species roles and trait‐driven patterns shaping interaction intensity. Plants and flower visitors changed ecological roles over time, with native flower visitors playing key roles in maintaining network cohesion ...

Vitellogenin plays a role in regulating honey bee swarming

open access: yesScientific Reports
Swarming, or colony reproduction, in honey bees (Apis mellifera) is an indicator of colony-level fitness. The drivers of swarming remain elusive at both the colony and individual bee level. Floral abundance, rapid colony growth, and congestion are colony

Roadside pollinator populations and the negative impact of intensive roadside vegetation maintenance

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Less intensively managed roadsides had higher numbers of flower flies and bees; bee diversity was also higher in those roadsides. Community composition was similar across both management types, indicating that roadsides support a fairly homogeneous pollinator community, regardless of management.
