Seamless Tracking of Hive Vital Signs Increases Honey Yield and Reduces Colony Loss

Penn State researchers have found that native pollinators, such as wild bees and wasps, are infected by the same viral diseases as honey bees and that these viruses are transmitted via pollen.

Top researchers, government officials and representatives of organizations from around the world presented their latest findings on honey bees and other pollinators at the inaugural International Conference on Pollinator Biology, Heath and Policy.
