Learned olfactory cues affect pollen-foraging preferences in honeybees, Apis mellifera
A Arenas, WM Farina - Animal Behaviour, 2012 - Elsevier
Honeybees, Apis mellifera, show learned odour preferences for flowers that provide nectar
as a reward. However, little is known about such behavioural plasticity when bees exploit …

Honeybees learn floral odors while receiving nectar from foragers within the hive
Recent studies showed that nectar odors brought back by honeybee foragers can be
learned associatively inside the hive. In the present study, we focused on the learning …
