A recent study shows that viruses in wild bees are closely linked to the flowers they visit and the availability of floral ...
WASHINGTON - Researchers have a pair of new suspects in the mysterious collapse of honey bee colonies across the country. The widespread damage to the bees has caused concern because the insects are ...
More flowers lead to more pathogen spread between bee species. In A Nutshell Scientists found that sites with more flower ...
Viruses spread from honey bees to wild bees through shared flowers, threatening pollination and plant communities.
Honey bees may play a role in increasing virus levels in wild bumble bees each spring, according to researchers who analyzed seasonal trends of parasite and virus transmission in bees. Honey bees may ...
UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. — This year’s cold and flu season is bringing good news for honey bees: Penn State researchers have found that the deadly deformed wing virus (DMV) may have evolved to be less ...
Planting more flowers is widely seen as a simple way to help struggling bees. But a new study suggests that, without careful ...
EAST LANSING, Mich. — Researchers at a Michigan State University facility dedicated to protecting honey bees are enlisting a four-legged ally to sniff out danger to the prized pollinators. The ...
