Worldwide, human appropriation of ecosystems is disrupting plant–pollinator communities and pollination function through habitat conversion and landscape homogenisation.

We relate 18 years of UK national wild bee distribution data for 62 species to amounts of neonicotinoid use in oilseed rape

Background: Spray adjuvants are often applied to crops in conjunction with agricultural pesticides in order to boost the efficacy of the active ingredient(s).

The adverse effects of neonicotinoids on honeybees have highlighted the importance of developing new compounds safer for bees and all pollinators.

We, the Ministers responsible for agriculture on 19 May 2018 at the International Ministerial Conference on the importance of bees and other pollinators for sustainable agriculture and food security...

Here we present the first large-scale standardized survey of colony losses of managed honey bees and stingless bees across Latin America.

Over the last quarter century, increasing honey bee colony losses motivated standardized large-scale surveys of managed honeybees, particularly in Europe and the United States.

Honeybees rely on a diverse set of individual and group-level defenses to prevent disease.

Queen breeders use various methods to produce good quality queens essential to populate their colonies. More recently, bee scientists have started the use of a queen rearing device namely Cupularve

Here, we tested the ability of propolis originating from the resins of these plants to inhibit the in vitro growth of Paenibacillus larvae , the organism that causes American foulbrood, a fatal honeybee larval disease. The study involved GC-MS analysis of extracts from nine samples of propolis gathered from the temperate climate zone of Europe.
