The behaviour of <i>Bombus impatiens</i> (Apidae, Bombini) on tomato (<i>Lycopersicon esculentum</i> Mill., Solanaceae) flowers: pollination and reward perception

The behaviour of <i>Bombus impatiens</i> (Apidae, Bombini) on tomato (<i>Lycopersicon esculentum</i> Mill., Solanaceae) flowers: pollination and reward perception

The foraging behaviour of pollinators can influence their efficiency in pollinating certain plant species. Improving our understanding of this behaviour can contribute to an improvement of management techniques to avoid pollination deficits. We investigated the relationship between the number of vis...
