The paper uses laboratory evolution to identify yeast resistance mechanisms against agrochemicals and shows how evolved yeast can protect honeybee hosts.

This study assesses the impact of a microbial biopesticide on two bee species under varying nutritional conditions, revealing species-specific lethal and sublethal effects.

This study shows that mixtures of microplastics PS and PMMA synergistically harm bee survival and immune response, alter cuticle profiles, and reduce colony detection of contaminated foragers.

This study investigates how caste, sex, and parasitism influence brain plasticity in the social wasp Polistes dominula, finding sex-specific and caste-related differences in brain region sizes and parasite-induced changes.
