Bees play a key role in pollinating services in natural ecosystems and agroecosystems. However, this indispensable service is due primarily to deforestation, fragmentation of habitat and loss of natural areas, which are replaced by urban centers, Agriculture and Livestock. In addition, subsequent activities related to Agriculture in the conventional system, such as the indiscriminate and …
The honey bee Apis mellifera L. provides pollination services for diverse crop plants, and these services are at risk due to exposure of bees to environmental chemicals. Forager honey bees collect nectar and pollen from flowers to sustain the colony and support healthy brood development; thus pesticides in the environment could potentially be transmitted to the hive through pollen and nec…
It is known that the population density of bees, as well as other pollinators, has been declining for some years, reaching worrying levels that would affect the pollination of natural and agricultural ecosystems. One of the determining factors for this situation is the use of pesticides such as herbicides, fungicides and insecticides, which used both in isolation and in combinations, ofte…
Bees are important pollinators of plants because they need nectar and pollen from flowers to complete their life cycle. The Africanized honeybee (Apis mellifera) is the best-known managed species in Brazil and one of the most important species for pollination of many agricultural crops. Due to the worldwide decline in bee populations over the years, which is attributed to a number of fact…
The decline of Apis mellifera bee colonies has become a worldwide concern and has been attributed to multiple stressors, such as the indiscriminate use of pesticides in growing areas. Most of the toxicological studies of pesticides evaluate isolated effects of each pesticide, however in the environment these substances are combined, which may increase the effects on bee colonies. The pres…
