-
(1973)Male Apis mellifera L. (drones) accompanying reproductive swarms were analyzed for honey stomach contents to determine if they engorge honey prior to or during swarming. No evidence for engorgement was found. A diurnal f ...
-
(1974)A previously undescribed system of differential food storage in replete forms of the honey ant, Myrmecocystus mexicanus Wesmael, is reported. Certain repletes store lipid as glycerol and cholesterol esters associated w ...
-
(1974)The mating flight behavior of drone honey bees from swarm clusters is compared to drone mating flight behavior from colony situations. Duration of flight from swarms and colony situations is similar. Swarm drones appear ...
-
(1974-01-08)The previously suggested protection from microbial attack of ripening nectar by the addition of glucose oxidase by the common honey bee, Apis mellifera L., has been found to occur in 9 other eusocial Hymenoptera from 3 s ...
-
(1974-07)
-
(1976)The tachinid species Ormia Dominicana, Ormia lineifrons, and Sitophaga aurigera were observed to aggregate atop 2 towers in central Florida shortly after sunset. The activity period for each species was brief, and th ...
-
(American Association for the Advancement of Science, 1977)The hepatotoxic alkaloids known to occur in tansy ragwort (Senecio jacobaea L.) are also present in honey produced from the nectar of this species. These alkaloids, which include senecionine, seneciphvlline, jacoline, ...
-
(Entomological Society of America, 1979-08)Polyethylene film controlled release packets utilizing ethylene dibromide (EDB) and pdichlorobenzene (PDB) were designed and tested against late instar larvae of Galleria mellonella (L.). EDB controlled release packets ...
-
(Entomological Society of America, 1980)Foraging honey bees (Apis mellifera L.), exposed to birdsfoot trefoil (Lotus corniculatus L.) bloom treated with microencapsulated methyl parathion, continued to display pollen and midgut microcapsule contamination up ...
-
(Hindawi Publishing, 1982)
-
(Entomological Society of America, 1985)A quantification of the number of adult worker Apis meltifera L. found on combs of standard sizes at full holding capacity is reported. Estimating the holding capacity of combs can assist in evaluating honey-bee coloni ...
-
(Elsevier, 1988)As a result of the Chernobyl accident on April 25, 1986. possible radioactive contamination of honey bees and cheese sampled in several areas of the United States were measured. Of bees collected in May and June of 198 ...
-
(Elsevier, 1989)An examination of a commercial honey-bee apiary for the Acarcapis species complex revealed the following: queens were essentially free from Acarapis parasitism: colonies were more frequently infested with A. dorsaiis an ...
-
(Entomological Society of America, 1993)We tested a population dynamics model that predicts that swarming of honey bees, Apis mellifera L., is a regulatory process of tracheal mites, Acarapis woodi (Rennie), parasitism. If the model is correct, then feral co ...
-
(Entomological Society of America, 2008-12)Fatty acid esters extractable from the surface of honey bee, Apis mellifera L. (Hymenoptera: Apidae), larvae, called brood pheromone, significantly increase rate of colony growth in the spring and summer when flowering p ...
-
(Oregon State University, Horticulture Dept., 2009)
-
(EDP Sciences, 2009-01)Mating flight records are presented for males (drones) of the Asian dwarf honeybee species Apis florea. These include observations on longevity, mortality and inclusive flight records for a cohort of known-aged males. ...
-
(Elsevier, 2011-10-31)Rubus seed has a deep double dormancy that restricts germination due to seed coat structure and chemical composition. Improved germination of diverse Rubus species required for breeding improved blackberry and raspberry ...
-
(American Society for Horticultural Science, 2011-12)The influence of irrigation frequency (same amount of water per day given at different times) and nitrogen (N) fertilizer rate on water stress [stomatal conductance (gs)], N uptake, and growth (biomass) of container-grow ...
-
(Elsevier, 2011-12)It is estimated that more than 95% of organic production is based on crop varieties that were bred for the conventional high-input sector. Recent studies have shown that such varieties lack important traits required unde ...
