“…Hence the duration and the number of trips, as proxies of time-activity budgets, should differ between learning and foraging, and AOF was thus commonly defined using arbitrary thresholds. For instance, ontogenetic shift was defined as the first day that a bee performs 5 trips or performs a trip longer than 30 minutes (Calderone & Page, 1988; Dukas, 2008, Tenczar, Lutz, Rao, Goldenfeld, & Robinson, 2014; He, Tian, Wu, & Zeng, 2015; Perry et al, 2015; Klein et al, 2019). However, the use of arbitrary thresholds may fail to capture the true timing of ontogenetic shifts, given the high inter-individual variation in honey bee life-history traits (Huang & Robinson, 1996; Amdam et al, 2009; Perry et al, 2015), and may differ with the genetic composition of the colony (Calderone & Page, 1988; Becerra-Guzman et al, 2005), climatic environmental factors (Henry et al, 2014; He et al, 2015), landscape structure and composition (Henry et al, 2014), and pesticide exposure (Decourtye et al, 2011; Henry et al, 2012; Prado et al, 2019).…”
