Compare the survival rates of queens across different dosage groups.
: While low doses (less than 10 ppb) typical of seed-treated crops did not immediately kill queens, higher doses (20 ppb to 100 ppb) commonly found in ornamental plants and certain spray-treated crops significantly increased queen mortality by the end of the study.
Analyze the "dosage-response" relationship regarding foraging behavior and colony health.
The study, conducted by Jamison Scholer and Vera Krischik, explored the sublethal effects of imidacloprid and clothianidin on Bombus impatiens (the Common Eastern Bumblebee) over an 11-week period.
: Define the role of neonicotinoids in modern agriculture and their systemic nature, where they are absorbed by the plant and present in pollen and nectar.
: Describe the 11-week greenhouse study where queenright colonies were fed sugar syrup containing varying concentrations of imidacloprid and clothianidin. Results & Discussion :
