Abstract:Over the last few decades, agrochemicals have been partially associated with a global reduction in bees. Toxicological assessment is crucial for understanding the overall agrochemical risks to stingless bees. Therefore, the lethal and sublethal effects of agrochemicals commonly used in crops (copper sulfate, glyphosate, and spinosad) on the behavior and gut microbiota of the stingless bee, Partamona helleri, were assessed using chronic exposure during the larval stage. The recommended field doses of CuSO4 (200… Show more
