Experimental Wing Damage Affects Foraging Effort and Foraging Distance in Honeybees Apis mellifera
Figure 4
(a) Mean (+ 1 SE) duration of waggle run per dance for each treatment group and whether they were damaged after they started foraging (open bars) or at eclosion (hatched bars). (b) Mean (± 1 SE) interval between waggle runs per dance (return run) for the three treatment groups. Bars that share the same letter did not significantly differ. Heavy bees indicated lower quality nectar sources than Control and Light bees.
