Fields of a single crop can harm bee health, but planting other types of vegetation nearby can protect pollinators from infectious diseases.

Bees first evolved more than 120 million years ago and diversified faster and spread wider than previously thought.

Carrying pollen gives bumble bees a workout, significantly increasing their body temperature, a new study shows.

Researchers collected more than 16,000 bees from 128 different species to evaluate pollinator habitats in North Carolina agricultural areas.

"...habitat quality has the potential to decrease or increase viral prevalence in pollinators," new research on bees and wildflowers finds.

Carbon dioxide may calm bumble bees down, but a new study shows it can also trigger other physiological responses, including in reproduction.

Biodiversity is critical to ecosystems, according to a new study that shows how different bee species pollinate the same plants over time.

Alpine bumblebees have adapted to colder temps of the Rocky Mountains, but now climate change warming is threatening these once abundant pollinators.

Pollination of watermelon flowers at fruit farms by wild bees decreased by more than half between 2005 and 2012, report researchers.
