The Museum of Jurassic Technology Featuring exhibitions like "Tell the Bees: Belief, Knowledge and Hypersymbolic Cognition," this Culver City museum is half scholarly meta-museum and half elaborate art prank.
Topics addressed include historical biogeography, cultural knowledge, bee foraging behavior, pollination, ecological interactions, health applications, microbiology, the natural history of bee nests, and chemical, bioactive and individual plant components in stored pollen.
To preserve populations of endangered bee species, sound knowledge of their maximum foraging distance between nest and host plants is crucial.
Despite a long history of research on bee navigation, most knowledge has been deduced from the behavior of foragers traveling between their nest and a single feeding site., Therefore, investigating how bees develop multi-destination routes has the potential to fill an important gap in our understanding of their biology and their impact on pollination.
Although our previous work has characterized the hemolymph proteome alteration during almost the complete brood developmental stage in western worker bees [ 9], knowledge of the hemolymph proteomic differences between western and eastern bees during the brood stage is still lacking.
A sample show from the BBC's Forces programme is described in the Radio Times: Here is a general-knowledge bee that should cause some fun.
It also gives a wider knowledge of bee preferences in local floral.
However, current knowledge on bee product marketing is poor and inadequate for designing policies and institutions to overcome perceived problems in the marketing system (Awraris et al., 2015).
My knowledge of bees, like most people's, was limited to the honey bee, so it was great to learn a little about the various other species that put mustard, cashews, broccoli and coriander in my cupboards.
Eva Crane, who earned a doctorate in nuclear physics and then abandoned the field to devote herself to expanding and spreading knowledge about bees as a researcher, historian, archivist, editor and author, died on Sept. 6 in Slough, England.
