Colony adaptive response to simulated heat waves and consequences at the individual level in honeybees (Apis mellifera)
Abstract Since climate change is expected to bring more severe and frequent extreme weather events such as heat waves, assessing the physiological and behavioural sensitivity of organisms to temperature becomes a priority. We therefore investigated the responses of honeybees, an important insect pol...
