Wild Bee Pollen Diets Reveal Patterns of Seasonal Foraging Resources for Honey Bees
Western honey bees (Apis mellifera) are dominant crop pollinators, and access to summer forage is a critical factor influencing colony health in agricultural landscapes. In many temperate agricultural regions, honey bees forage extensively from non-native plants during the summer, but it is unclear...
