Honey bee foraging ecology: Season but not landscape diversity shapes the amount and diversity of collected pollen.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2017

Danner Nadja, Keller Alexander, Härtel Stephan, Steffan-Dewenter Ingolf

Abstract excerpt

The availability of pollen in agricultural landscapes is essential for the successful growth and reproduction of honey bee colonies (Apis mellifera L.). The quantity and diversity of collected pollen can influence the growth and health of honey bee colonies, but little is known about the influence of landscape structure on pollen diet. In a field experiment, we rotated 16 honey bee colonies across 16 agricultural...
