Generalized host‐plant feeding can hide sterol‐specialized foraging behaviors in bee–plant interactions
Abstract Host‐plant selection is a key factor driving the ecology and evolution of insects. While the majority of phytophagous insects is highly host specific, generalist behavior is quite widespread among bees and presumably involves physiological adaptations that remain largely unexplored. However...
