Beschreibung:
Nonlethal exposure of honey bees to thiamethoxam (neonicotinoid systemic pesticide) causes high mortality due to homing failure at levels that could put a colony at risk of collapse. Simulated exposure events on free-ranging foragers labeled with a radio-frequency identification tag suggest that homing is impaired by thiamethoxam intoxication. These experiments offer new insights into the consequences of common neonicotinoid pesticides used worldwide.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Henry, Mickael -- Beguin, Maxime -- Requier, Fabrice -- Rollin, Orianne -- Odoux, Jean-Francois -- Aupinel, Pierrick -- Aptel, Jean -- Tchamitchian, Sylvie -- Decourtye, Axel -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2012 Apr 20;336(6079):348-50. doi: 10.1126/science.1215039.
