2022 journal article

Consuming sunflower pollen reduced pathogen infection but did not alter measures of immunity in bumblebees

By: A. Fowler*, B. Sadd*, T. Bassingthwaite*, R. Irwin n & L. Adler*

TL;DR: It is found that sunflower pollen does not significantly affect the immune responses the authors measured, suggesting that the mechanisms underlying its medicinal effect do not involve these bee immune parameters. (via Semantic Scholar)

What are the plant reproductive consequences of losing a nectar robber?

Journal of Pollination Ecology, 32, 97–109.

TL;DR: Fly visits to flowers were dramatically higher in 2016 compared to the 1970s, and in the absence of bumble bees, muscid flies significantly reduced fruit set below the self-pollination rate, suggesting how A. caerulea may fare in a changing visitation landscape. (via Semantic Scholar)

2022 article

Floral shape predicts bee-parasite transmission potential

Pinilla-Gallego, M. S., Ng, W. H., Amaral, V. E., & Irwin, R. E. (2022, June 12). ECOLOGY.

author keywords: bee decline; Bombus impatiens; Crithidia bombi; floral traits; transmission dynamics
MeSH headings : Animals; Bees; Crithidia; Ecosystem; Flowers / anatomy & histology; Parasites; Phenotype; Pollination
TL;DR: The results highlight the importance of flower species identity and floral traits in disease transmission dynamics of bee parasites, and floral shape as an important predictor of overall transmission potential. (via Semantic Scholar)

Life-history traits predict responses of wild bees to climate variation

author keywords: body size; nesting behaviour; temperature; montane systems; lag-effects; fourth corner
MeSH headings : Animals; Bees; Climate Change; Life History Traits; Phenotype; Pollination / physiology; Reproduction; Temperature
TL;DR: How climate change may reshape bee pollinator communities is shown, with bees with certain traits increasing in abundance and others declining, potentially leading to novel plant–pollinator interactions and changes in plant reproduction. (via Semantic Scholar)

Sunflower pollen induces rapid excretion in bumble bees: Implications for host-pathogen interactions

Journal of Insect Physiology, 137, 104356.

author keywords: Host physiology; Host-pathogen interactions; Insect excretory system; Protozoan pathogens; Rapid excretion
MeSH headings : Animals; Bees; Crithidia / physiology; Diet; Helianthus; Host-Pathogen Interactions; Pollen
TL;DR: It is shown that a sunflower pollen diet can affect host physiology gut function, causing more rapid and greater excretion, which provides important insight into a mechanism that could underlie the medicinal effect ofSunflower pollen for bumble bees. (via Semantic Scholar)

Comparative impacts of long‐term trends in snowmelt and species interactions on plant population dynamics

Journal of Ecology, 110(5), 1102–1112.

By: D. Campbell*, M. Price*, N. Waser*, R. Irwin n & A. Brody*

author keywords: biotic interaction; integral projection model; Ipomopsis; plant-climate interactions; pollen limitation; population growth; precipitation; seed predation
TL;DR: The reduction over two decades in pollen limitation suggests that natural selection on floral traits may weaken with continued climate change, and the value of studying both abiotic factors and biotic interactions to understand how climate change will influence plant populations is highlighted.

Effects of an alternative host on the prevalence and intensity of infection of a bumble bee parasite

Parasitology, 149(4), 562–567.

author keywords: Bombus impatiens; Crithidia bombi; serial passage
MeSH headings : Animals; Bees; Crithidia; Host Specificity; Host-Parasite Interactions; Parasites; Prevalence
TL;DR: It is suggested that host switching has the potential to affect the adaptation of bee parasites to their hosts, and both the probability and intensity of infection on the primary host increased after serial passage through the alternative host. (via Semantic Scholar)

2022 journal article

Sunflower pollen reduces a gut pathogen in the model bee species, <i>Bombus impatiens , but has weaker effects in three wild congeners

author keywords: bee pathogen; pollinator; pollen; Bombus; sunflower; Crithidia
MeSH headings : Animals; Bees; Crithidia / physiology; Diet; Helianthus; Parasites; Pollen
TL;DR: Sunflower pollen could control Crithidia infections in B. impatiens and potentially close relatives, but may hinder reproduction if other resources are scarce, and be interpreted carefully as findings may not relate to all bee species. (via Semantic Scholar)
