Plant evolution can mediate negative effects from honey bees on wild pollinators
Ecology and Evolution, 2020 Pollinators are introduced to agroecosystems to provide pollination services. Introductions of managed pollinators often promote ecosystem services, but it remains largely unknown whether they also affect evolutionary mutualisms between wild pollinators ...

Sickness Behavior in Honey Bees [PDF]
Frontiers in Physiology, 2016 During an infection, animals suffer several changes in their normal physiology and behavior which may include lethargy, appetite loss, and reduction in grooming and general movements. This set of alterations is known as sickness behavior and although it has been extensively believed to be orchestrated primarily by the immune system, a relevant role for

Mason bees and honey bees synergistically enhance fruit set in sweet cherry orchards
Ecology and Evolution, 2023 Mason bees (Osmia spp.) are efficient fruit tree pollinators that can be encouraged to occupy and breed in artificial nesting material. In sweet cherry orchards, they are occasionally used as an alternative managed pollinator as a replacement for or in ...
