Invasive bees and their impact on agriculture
(Elsevier Academic Press Inc., 2020-01)
Increasing honey demand and global coverage of pollinator-dependent crops within the context of global pollinator declines have accelerated international trade in managed bees. Bee introductions into agricultural landscapes ...
Abejas productivas: Tendencias socioeconómicas y ambientales con prospección futura
(Simposio Innovación en la apicultura y meliponicultura, 2017-10-25)
Las abejas son insectos de gran impacto global, sus servicios, productos, subproductos y aplicaciones han acompañado a la sociedad humana desde los albores de la civilización. Del más del millón de especies de insectos que ...
Bee, hummingbird or mixed pollinated Salvia species mirror pathways to pollination optimization: a morphometric analysis based on the Pareto front concept
(National Research Council Canada-NRC Research Press, 2016-09)
Optimization of flower phenotypes to ensure pollination by agents differing in their match with fertile flower structures can involve fitness trade-offs if the aspects of the phenotype that enhance the fitness contribution ...
The influence of local and landscape scale on single response traits in bees: A meta-analysis
(Elsevier Science, 2018-03)
Assessments of environmental drivers that regulate the functional composition of various organisms have become more frequent in the ecological literature, as this approach establishes a more direct connection between ...
Comparative study in stingless bees (Meliponini) demonstrates that nest entrance size predicts traffic and defensivity
(BLACKWELL PUBLISHING, 2008)
Stingless bees (Meliponini) construct their own species-specific nest entrance. The size of this entrance is under conflicting selective pressures. Smaller entrances are easier to defend; however, a larger entrance ...

(ECLAC, 2006-06)
This issue of the Bulletin presents a brief review of trade facilitation negotiations from the specific viewpoint of technical assistance, capacity-building and special and differential treatment (SDT). Trade facilitation ...
An Effective Hybrid Butterfly Optimization Algorithm with Artificial Bee Colony for Numerical Optimization
In this paper, a new hybrid optimization algorithm
which combines the standard Butterfly Optimization Algorithm
