Laboratory risk assessment of three entomopathogenic fungi used for pest control toward social bee pollinators

HIGHLIGHTS

SUMMARY

    Of more than 20,000 described species worldwide, a small fraction of them is managed for crop pollination, such as the Western honey bee, some bumble bees, and stingless bee species. Given the pivotal role of these social bees in agroecosystems and the increasing use of EF for pest control, risk assessment of EF`s impact on bees is crucial for ensuring more sustainable agricultural practices. Most evaluations of the effect of biopesticides focus on the honey bee Apis mellifera, while bumble bees, stingless bees, and solitary bees have received much less attention. Pesticide . . .
