Genetic determinants of honey bee foraging behaviour
The amount of pollen stored in honey bee, Apis mellifera, colonies is a selectable trait. Five generations of two-way selection resulted in high and low strains that differed more than six-fold in quantities of stored pollen. Comparisons with hybrid crosses suggested that colony-level, high pollen-hoarding behaviour is inherited as a recessive trait. Colony levels of stored honey, however, show...
متن کاملModeling Honey Bee Populations
Eusocial honey bee populations (Apis mellifera) employ an age stratification organization of egg, larvae, pupae, hive bees and foraging bees. Understanding the recent decline in honey bee colonies hinges on understanding the factors that impact each of these different age castes. We first perform an analysis of steady state bee populations given mortality rates within each bee caste and find th...
متن کاملCollective Decision-Making in Honey Bee Foraging Dynamics
We consider a bee colony as dynamical system gathering information from an environment and adjusting its behaviour in accordance to it. Intelligent decisionmaking emerges from enhancing the level of communication among the individuals. Since the foragers communicate information about the environment to the nest, the latter means enhancing the coupling level of colony and environment. When indiv...
متن کاملEcology: Honey Bee Foraging in Human-Modified Landscapes
Comprehensive information on the spatial resource use of honey bees is rare, but highly relevant to assess the consequences of habitat loss and fragmentation, agricultural intensification or extensification on colony fitness, pesticide exposure risks and pollination functions.
متن کاملHoney bee toxicology.
Insecticides are chemicals used to kill insects, so it is unsurprising that many insecticides have the potential to harm honey bees (Apis mellifera). However, bees are exposed to a great variety of other potentially toxic chemicals, including flavonoids and alkaloids that are produced by plants; mycotoxins produced by fungi; antimicrobials and acaricides that are introduced by beekeepers; and f...
