Decoupling the effects of nutrition, age, and behavioral caste on honey bee physiology, immunity, and colony health
Nutritional stress, especially a dearth of pollen, has been linked to honey bee colony losses. Colony-level experiments are critical for understanding the mechanisms by which nutritional stress affects individual honey bee physiology and pushes honey bee colonies to collapse. In this study, we inves...
