Africanized honey bees more efficiently convert protein diets into hemolymph protein than do Carniolan bees (Apis mellifera carnica)
(FUNPEC-EDITORA, 2009)
The superiority of Africanized over European honey bees in tropical and subtropical regions of the New World is both well documented and poorly understood. As part of an effort to try to understand the process by which the ...
Preserving habitat quality at local and landscape scales increases wild bee diversity in intensive farming systems
(Elsevier Science, 2019-04)
Biological diversity is influenced by many environmental factors, which can act either at a local scale (e.g. quality and quantity of feeding and nesting resources, habitat type) or at a landscape scale (e.g. habitat ...
From research to action: enhancing crop yield through wild pollinators
(Ecological Society of America, 2014-09-23)
Recent evidence highlights the value of wild-insect species richness and abundance for crop pollination worldwide. Yet, deliberate physical importation of single species (eg European honey bees) into crop fields for ...
From research to action: practices to enhance crop yield through wild pollinators
(Wiley, 2014-03)
Recent evidence highlights the value of wild-insect species richness and abundance for crop pollination worldwide. Yet, deliberate physical importation of single species (eg European honey bees) into crop fields for ...
Time to integrate pollinator science into soybean production
(Elsevier Science London, 2021-07-01)
Soybeans cover 129 million hectares globally. Soybean productivity can increase with pollinator management, but soybean cultivation practices commonly ignore biotic pollination. If pollinator habitats are created within ...
The melittofauna and its floral associations in a natural riparian forest in Buenos Aires province, Argentina
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2020-06-02)
This study estimates the diversity, abundance and floral associations of native wild bees present in a nature reserve in Buenos Aires, Argentina. The study included monthly sampling from September to April for two consecutive ...
Leucospis leucotelus (Hymenoptera: Leucospidae) as a parasitoid of the large carpenter bee X ylocopa lateralis (Hymenoptera: Apidae, Xylocopinae) in ColombiaLeucospis leucotelus (Hymenoptera: Leucospidae) parasitoide de la abeja carpintera grande Xylocopa lateralis (Hymenoptera: Apidae, Xylocopinae) en Colombia
(Sociedad Entomológica Argentina, 2019-06-27)
We report Leucospis leucotelus Walker parasitizing nests of Xylocopa(Schonnherria) lateralis Say in Colombia. Previous literature records of species of Leucospisassociated with species ofXylocopa are summarized.
Detection of honey bee viruses in Argentinian stingless bees (Hymenoptera: Apidae)
(Birkhauser Verlag Ag, 2018-02)
The Meliponini is a eusocial group of bees tropically distributed. In Argentina, 37 species have been recorded, mostly in Misiones province. They use a great variety of sites to build their nests including tree hollows, ...
A global quantitative synthesis of local and landscape effects on wild bee pollinators in agroecosystems
(Wiley, 2013-03)
Bees provide essential pollination services that are potentially affected both by local farm management and the surrounding landscape. To better understand these different factors, we modelled the relative effects of ...
