(2005-06-01)
The selection of plants is one of the stages of foraging behavior, executed by leaf-cutting ants for the cultivation of symbiont fungus. Anatomical, biochemical and physiological characteristics of vegetal species are some ...
Physical Properties of Aqueous Solutions of Pectin Containing Sunflower Wax
(Springer, 2013-06)
The aim of this study is to investigate the physical properties of aqueous solutions of pectin (PA) containing sunflower wax (SFW), which are used as a basis for producing edible films. The stability and the rheological ...
Would wax glands help us to understand the relationships among corbiculate bees?
(Springer, 2021-03-16)
Many of the phenotypic manifestations present in social insects are related to the development of exocrine glands, well represented by the nest-building behaviors. Among bees, four tribes compose the corbiculate bees, ...
