Ovary activation does not correlate with pollen and nectar foraging specialization in the bumblebee Bombus impatiens
Social insect foragers may specialize on certain resource types. Specialization on pollen or nectar among honeybee foragers is hypothesized to result from associations between reproductive physiology and sensory tuning that evolved in ancestral solitary bees (the Reproductive Ground-Plan Hypothesis;...
