Research from Monash University explores how rising temperatures and growing urban environments can affect behavior in native ...

The insect foraging (for) gene encodes a cyclic GMP-dependent protein kinase (PKG) that affects foraging behavior. In Drosophila two different for alleles have been found, and the two alleles affect ...

Key pointsHigher temperatures caused European honeybees to slow down their attraction to light, while native Australian bees' light attraction ...

EPFL researchers are developing robotic beehive frames that help locate honey stores inside of beehives over time, without relying on cameras. The aim is to develop new observation tools to study ...

True altruism is rare behavior in animals, but a new study has found that honey bees display this trait. Additionally, they found that an evolutionary battle of genetics may determine the parent they ...

Honey bees are incredibly social insects. They live together in big groups with other bees in an organized society that scientists call eusocial, which means every bee has a job to do. This could be ...

Honey bees are among the most cooperative and industrious creatures. Their process of collecting nectar and returning it to the hive is a remarkable example of collective decision-making involving ...

UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. — True altruism is rare behavior in animals, but a new study by Penn State researchers has found that honey bees display this trait. Additionally, they found that an evolutionary ...
