(BRILL ACADEMIC PUBLISHERS, 2006-07)
Nest-mate recognition and territorial behaviour in ants are widely studied phenomena. However, few studies have analysed, under field conditions, how nest-mate recognition varies with distance from the resident's colony. ...
Effect of male aggressivity profile on female chemical choice in Nile tilapia
(2019-09-13)
Selection favors females that make use of reliable information on the genetic quality of males, which affects mating decisions. Although studies have shown that females prefer dominant males, it may not be adaptive for ...

Effects of Synthetic Acaricides and Nosema ceranae (Microsporidia: Nosematidae) on Molecules Associated with Chemical Communication and Recognition in Honey Bees
(MDPI, 2020-12)
Acaricides and the gut parasite Nosema ceranae are commonly present in most productivehives. Those stressors could be affecting key semiochemicals, which act as homeostasis regulators inApis mellifera colonies, such as ...
