... imidacloprid, high-dose imidacloprid or sulfoxaflor. Then, visual and olfactory learning and short-term memory were assessed. We found that acute insecticide exposure influenced performance, as sulfoxaflor- and high-dose imidacloprid-exposed wasps made fewer correct choices than control wasps. Notably, both...

...Mohamed Alburaki; Shahid Karim; Kurt Lamour; John Adamczyk; Scott D. Stewart ABSTRACT In this study, we present phenotypic and genetic data characterizing the impact of imidacloprid and caging stress on honey bee Apis mellifera physiological responses and regulation of 45 genes using targeted-RNA...

... joint exposure to field-realistic concentrations of the neonicotinoid imidacloprid and glyphosate on gustatory perception and olfactory learning. Both pesticides reduced sucrose responsiveness and had a negative effect on olfactory learning. Glyphosate also reduced food uptake during rearing...

...-realistic concentrations of the neonicotinoid imidacloprid and the organophosphate acetylcholinesterase inhibitor coumaphos and their combination impairs olfactory learning and memory formation in the honeybee. Using a method for classical conditioning of proboscis extension, honeybees were trained...

...Daren M. Eiri; James C. Nieh SUMMARY A nicotinic acetylcholine receptor agonist, imidacloprid, impairs memory formation in honey bees and has general effects on foraging. However, little is known about how this agonist affects two specific aspects of foraging: sucrose responsiveness (SR) and waggle...

...S. D. Buckingham; B. Lapied; H. Le Corronc; F. Grolleau; D. B. Sattelle ABSTRACT The neonicotinoid insecticide Imidacloprid acts at three pharmacologically distinct acetylcholine receptor (AChR) subtypes in the cockroach ( Periplaneta americana ) nervous system, but is ineffective on muscarinic...
