Deskripsi
Tosi and colleagues perform a large, multinational experiment on honey bees, encompassing multiple subspecies, to assess the short- and long-term effects of a next-generation pesticide, flupyradifurone, on this key pollinator species. Their findings indicate that this “bee safe” pesticide impairs survival and behaviour at real-world exposure levels.
