Envenomation leads to venom protein reduction and recovery delay in bumblebee workers

Safira Moog, Mario Dejung, Amitkumar Fulzele…·Thomas J. Colgan

This study examines proteomic changes in bumblebee venom sacs after envenomation, finding reduced venom proteins and delayed recovery, suggesting molecular costs of venom usage.

Simulated climate warming scenarios lead to earlier emergence and increased weight loss but have no effect on overwintering survival in solitary bees

Jannik S. Möllmann, Liv Lörchner, Dean Hodapp…·Thomas J. Colgan

This study shows that simulated climate warming leads to earlier emergence and more weight loss in solitary bees but does not affect their overwintering survival.

Queen number shapes worker longevity, fecundity and gene expression in the invasive, highly polygynous ant Tapinoma magnum

Anna Lenhart, Megha Majoe, S. Kalai Selvi…·Susanne Foitzik

This study examines how queen number affects worker longevity, fecundity, and gene expression in the polygynous ant Tapinoma magnum, finding that more queens reduce worker lifespan and fertility.
