An interspecific comparison of foraging range and nest density of four bumblebee (Bombus) species.

Molecular ecology - 1 May 2005

Abstract excerpt

Bumblebees are major pollinators of crops and wildflowers in northern temperate regions. Knowledge of their ecology is vital for the design of effective management and conservation strategies but key aspects remain poorly understood. Here we employed microsatellite markers to estimate and compare...
