Using sucrose solution as reward, we conditioned preforaging honey bees of two genetic strains to tactile stimuli or to odours. Acquisition, extinction of conditioned responses and discrimination between the conditioned stimuli and alternative tactile or olfactory stimuli were measured. Bees of the two genetic strains were selected for their foraging behaviour. In addition, they differ in their responsiveness to...
