How population structure and sociality shape disease patterns in bumble bees

2024-11-07

Abstract excerpt

not-yet-known not-yet-known not-yet-known unknown Host density, genetic diversity and social structure are key factors influencing disease transmission in wildlife populations, but their interactions remain poorly understood in insects. We assessed how populations of two common bumble bee species, Bombus pascuorum and B. terrestris are structured across island and mainland sites in the British Isles and France...
