Chronic sublethal stress causes bee colony failure
Current bee population declines and colony failures are well documented yet poorly understood and no single factor has been identified as a leading cause. The evidence is equivocal and puzzling: for instance, many pathogens and parasites can be found in both failing and surviving colonies and field pesticide exposure is typically sublethal. Here, we investigate how these results can be due to s...

متن کاملAssessment of Chronic Sublethal Effects of Imidacloprid on Honey Bee Colony Health
Here we present results of a three-year study to determine the fate of imidacloprid residues in hive matrices and to assess chronic sublethal effects on whole honey bee colonies fed supplemental pollen diet containing imidacloprid at 5, 20 and 100 μg/kg over multiple brood cycles. Various endpoints of colony performance and foraging behavior were measured during and after exposure, including wi...
متن کاملHow Can Bee Colony Algorithm Serve Medicine?
Healthcare professionals usually should make complex decisions with far reaching consequences and associated risks in health care fields. As it was demonstrated in other industries, the ability to drill down into pertinent data to explore knowledge behind the data can greatly facilitate superior, informed decisions to ensue the facts. Nature has always inspired researchers to develop models of ...
متن کاملBee Colony Optimization (BCO)
Swarm Intelligence is the part of Artificial Intelligence based on study of actions of individuals in various decentralized systems. The Bee Colony Optimization (BCO) metaheuristic has been introduced fairly recently as a new direction in the field of Swarm Intelligence. Artificial bees represent agents, which collaboratively solve complex combinatorial optimization problem. The chapter present...
