Pollen sterols are highly diverse but phylogenetically conserved
Summary Phytosterols regulate cell membrane fluidity and are precursors for plant hormones and secondary metabolites in plants. Insects are auxotrophic for sterols; therefore, they have to consume phytosterols and dealkylate them to cholesterol. Some insects, including bees, which rely on dietary sources, primarily pollen, for sterols, cannot modify ...

Ecology of native bees in North Taranaki, New Zealand : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Zoology at Massey University, Manawatū, New Zealand [PDF]
Studies are increasingly finding that native bees are important pollinators in many systems, in both natural and agricultural settings. With the possible loss of honey bees due to various reasons, it has become clear that relying on major pollinator for ...

We show that communities of wild bees can be accurately characterized by flower‐derived environmental DNA. eDNA based monitoring recovers relative abundances of individual bee species and provides information on the ecological specificity of different bees on individual plants.

ABSTRACT This review seeks a deeper functional understanding of wild bee microbiomes by focusing on a tribe of bees where natural history and behavioral ecology are well known but investigations of microbiology are just beginning. Opportunities to improve our future knowledge of pathogens to insect pollinators are explored—which have broad ...
