Investigating bee stressors

Data was collected during laboratory experiments designed to answer the questions:

  • Do stingless bees prefer or avoid sucrose solution containing insecticides?
  • Does insecticide exposure influence thermal tolerance of a stingless bee?

The full methodology is available in the Open Access publication from the Related publications link below.

Software/equipment used to create/collect the data: Microsoft Excel Version 16.64 RStudio 2021.09.0 Build 351 R 2.1.1 GUI 1.77 Big Sur ARM build (7985)
