Olfactory coding in honeybees [PDF]
Cell and Tissue Research, 2021 With less than a million neurons, the western honeybee Apis mellifera is capable of complex olfactory behaviors and provides an ideal model for investigating the neurophysiology of the olfactory circuit and the basis of olfactory perception and learning.

Examining Honeybee (Apis mellifera) Dominance Patterns Within Urban Bee Communities Worldwide [PDF]
Ecology and EvolutionUrban ecosystems can host diverse bee communities. However, the increasing prevalence of urban honeybees (Apis mellifera Linnaeus 1758) raises concerns about their ecological impact. Using a systematic review of published studies, we obtained 68 datasets

Melatonin as a Potential Dietary Supplement to Counteract Glyphosate-Induced Decline in Honeybee Populations [PDF]
InsectsDue to their role as the main pollinators in agricultural environments, honeybees help improve crop quality and yield and also help maintain global and ecosystem biodiversity. However, pesticide exposure during foraging has resulted in declining honeybee

Extracts From Grapefruit (Citrus paradisi) Peel via Microwave-Assisted and Conventional Extractions: Evaluation of Nosema Infection and Toxicity in Honey Bees. [PDF]
Vet Med SciConventional and microwave‐assisted extractions of grapefruit peels were optimized using response surface methodology (RSM) based on TPC, TFC, and antioxidant activity (DPPH). The phytochemical profiles of the two optimum extracts were characterized via HPLC before evaluating their acute and chronic toxicity, as well as their effects on honey bee (Apis

A Novel Thermal-Visual Place Learning Paradigm for Honeybees (Apis mellifera)
Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2020 Honeybees (Apis mellifera) have fascinating navigational skills and learning capabilities in the field. To decipher the mechanisms underlying place learning in honeybees, we need paradigms to study place learning of individual honeybees under controlled ...

Factors Influencing the Reproductive Ability of Male Bees: Current Knowledge and Further Directions
Insects, 2021 Bumblebees and honeybees are very important pollinators and play a vital role in agricultural and natural ecosystems. The quality of their colonies is determined by the queens and the reproductive drones of mother colonies, and mated drones transmit ...

Simple Physical Interactions Yield Social Self-Organization in Honeybees
Frontiers in Physics, 2021 Social insect colonies show all characteristics of complex adaptive systems (CAS). Their complex behavioral patterns arise from social interactions that are based on the individuals’ reactions to and interactions with environmental stimuli. We study here
