Honeybee Diets Help Them Resist Deadly Pesticides

Honeybee diets that consist of natural pollen can help make the more resistant to deadly pesticides compared to feeding them an artificial diet, new research says.

While foraging for flowers, honeybees are exposed to hundreds of pesticides every day, like neonicotinoids, and now scientists are fairly certain that they are the leading cause behind a drastic decline in honeybee populations first noticed nearly a decade ago. Now, this new study shows that such harmful chemicals can cause changes in expression of genes involved in combating pesticides.
