Pharmacological modulation of aversive responsiveness in honey bees

Pharmacological modulation of aversive responsiveness in honey bees

Within a honey bee colony, individuals performing different tasks exhibit different sensitivities to noxious stimuli. Noxious-stimulus sensitivity can be quantified in harnessed bees by measuring the sting extension response (SER) to a series of increasing voltages. Biogenic amines play a crucial ro...
