| Effects of bee exposure to glyphosate herbicide Summary Honey bees play an important role in pollination and have a positive effect on improving crop yield and increasing the genetic diversity of plants, and as a result, they bring tremendous economic benefits to humans. However, honey bee survival is affected by a number of biotic and abiotic stresses, including the effects of fungi, bacteria, viruses, parasites, and especially agrochemicals. Glyphosate, a broad-spectrum herbicide mainly used to control weeds in agriculture, has lethal effects on honey bees. In the natural environment, honeybees can be exposed to glyphosate and its formulations in various ways, either causing individual death or being transferred into the hive to affect the health of the entire colony. Also, lethal concentrations of glyphosate can have various adverse effects on the growth and development of bees, social behavior, immune defense, etc. Keywords:Acetamiprid, Insects, Colony Health, Pollination. | ||
