    Neonicotinoid pesticide reduces bumble bee colony growth and queen production (2012)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2012-03-31
    Description: Growing evidence for declines in bee populations has caused great concern because of the valuable ecosystem services they provide. Neonicotinoid insecticides have been implicated in these declines because they occur at trace levels in the nectar and pollen of crop plants. We exposed colonies of the bumble bee Bombus terrestris in the laboratory to field-realistic levels of the neonicotinoid imidacloprid, then allowed them to develop naturally under field conditions. Treated colonies had a significantly reduced growth rate and suffered an 85% reduction in production of new queens compared with control colonies. Given the scale of use of neonicotinoids, we suggest that they may be having a considerable negative impact on wild bumble bee populations across the developed world.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Whitehorn, Penelope R -- O'Connor, Stephanie -- Wackers, Felix L -- Goulson, Dave -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2012 Apr 20;336(6079):351-2. doi: 10.1126/science.1215025.

    Bee declines driven by combined stress from parasites, pesticides, and lack of flowers (2015)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2015-02-28
    Description: Bees are subject to numerous pressures in the modern world. The abundance and diversity of flowers has declined; bees are chronically exposed to cocktails of agrochemicals, and they are simultaneously exposed to novel parasites accidentally spread by humans. Climate change is likely to exacerbate these problems in the future. Stressors do not act in isolation; for example, pesticide exposure can impair both detoxification mechanisms and immune responses, rendering bees more susceptible to parasites. It seems certain that chronic exposure to multiple interacting stressors is driving honey bee colony losses and declines of wild pollinators, but such interactions are not addressed by current regulatory procedures, and studying these interactions experimentally poses a major challenge. In the meantime, taking steps to reduce stress on bees would seem prudent; incorporating flower-rich habitat into farmland, reducing pesticide use through adopting more sustainable farming methods, and enforcing effective quarantine measures on bee movements are all practical measures that should be adopted. Effective monitoring of wild pollinator populations is urgently needed to inform management strategies into the future.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Goulson, Dave -- Nicholls, Elizabeth -- Botias, Cristina -- Rotheray, Ellen L -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2015 Mar 27;347(6229):1255957. doi: 10.1126/science.1255957.

    Synergistic interactions between an exotic honeybee and an exotic weed: pollination of Lantana camara in Australia (2004)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Science Ltd
    Weed research 44 (2004), S. 0

    Notes: Lantana camara, a woody shrub originating in south and central America, is among the most widespread and troublesome exotic weeds of the old-world tropics. It invades pasture, crops and native ecosystems, causing substantial economic losses and environmental degradation. In Australia alone, L. camara is currently estimated to cover c. 40 000 km2 . In glasshouse studies we demonstrate that L. camara requires cross-pollination to set fruit, and that honeybee visits result in effective pollination. Field studies carried out in Queensland, Australia, suggest that fruit set is limited by pollinator abundance, and that the main pollinator of L. camara throughout a substantial portion of its Australian range appears to be the honeybee, Apis mellifera. Seed set was strongly correlated with honeybee abundance, and at many sites, particularly in southern Queensland, honeybees were the only recorded flower visitors. Of 63 sites that were visited, seed set was highest at five sites where only honeybees were present. Hives are frequently stationed within and adjacent to areas such as National Parks that are threatened by this noxious weed. Management of honeybee populations may provide a powerful tool for cost-effective control of L. camara that has previously been overlooked. We suggest that there are probably many other weeds, both in Australia and elsewhere, that benefit from honeybee pollination.

    Notes: Abstract Infection with an endoparasite frequently alters host behaviour. This study provides the first quantification of larval behaviour in a baculovirus/ Lepidoptera system, and attempts to assess the ecological consequences of behavioural modification during infection. Larvae of the moth Mamestra brassicae (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) exhibited higher rates of dispersal in the laboratory and field when infected with Mamestra brassicae nuclear polyhedrosis virus (MbNPV) than did uninfected larvae. They adopted positions at death which were not characteristic of healthy larvae, climbing higher on the foodplant and onto the top and edge of leaves. The horizontal and vertical distribution of virus following larval lysis and the effects of rainfall on this distribution were assessed for comparison with the distributions of healthy and infected larvae. Exposure to rainfall increased the infectivity of vegetation in bioassays. Alternative explanations for the evolutionary origins of behavioural modification are considered. I suggest that the behavioural changes observed are most likely to benefit the virus. In particular, climbing prior to death is likely to result in contamination of more foliage with virus particles than would otherwise occur by increasing exposure of cadavers to rainfall. Thus it may profoundly influence horizontal transmission and the dynamics of the host-virus interaction.
