Honeybees Learn Odour Mixtures via a Selection of Key Odorants [PDF]
, 2015 BACKGROUND The honeybee has to detect, process and learn numerous complex odours from her natural environment on a daily basis. Most of these odours are floral scents, which are mixtures of dozens of different odorants.

Honeybees disrupt the structure and functionality of plant-pollinator networks
Scientific Reports, 2019 The honeybee is the primary managed species worldwide for both crop pollination and honey production. Owing to beekeeping activity, its high relative abundance potentially affects the structure and functioning of pollination networks in natural ...

Learning and memory in the honeybee [PDF]
The Journal of Neuroscience, 1995 Insects are favorable subjects for neuroethological studies. Their nervous systems are relatively small and contain many individually identifiable cells. The CNS is highly compartmentalized with clear separations between multisensory higher order neuropiles in the brain and neuropiles serving sensory-motor routines in the ventral cord (Huber, 1974 ...

Numerical cognition in bees and other insects [PDF]
, 2016 The ability to perceive the number of objects has been known to exist in vertebrates for a few decades, but recent behavioral investigations have demonstrated that several invertebrate species can also be placed on the continuum of numerical abilities ...

ColEval: Honeybee COLony Structure EVALuation for Field Surveys
Insects, 2020 Methods for the evaluation and comparison of the structure of numerous honeybee colonies are needed for the development of applied and fundamental field research, as well as to evaluate how the structure and activity of honeybee colonies evolve over time.

Antibiotic exposure perturbs the gut microbiota and elevates mortality in honeybees
PLoS Biology, 2017 Gut microbiomes play crucial roles in animal health, and shifts in the gut microbial community structure can have detrimental impacts on hosts. Studies with vertebrate models and human subjects suggest that antibiotic treatments greatly perturb the ...

Respiration of resting honeybees [PDF]
Journal of Insect Physiology, 2007 The relation between the respiratory activity of resting honeybees and ambient temperature (T(a)) was investigated in the range of 5-40 degrees C. Bees were kept in a temperature controlled flow through respirometer chamber where their locomotor and endothermic activity, as well as abdominal ventilatory movements was recorded by infrared thermography ...
