Bumblebee electric charge stimulates floral volatile emissions in Petunia integrifolia but not in Antirrhinum majus Open
The timing of volatile organic compound (VOC) emission by flowering plants often coincides with pollinator foraging activity. Volatile emission is often considered to be paced by environmental variables, such as light intensity, and/or by …

Contacts and behaviours of university students during the COVID-19 pandemic at the start of the 2020/2021 academic year Open
University students have unique living, learning and social arrangements which may have implications for infectious disease transmission. To address this data gap, we created CONQUEST (COroNavirus QUESTionnaire), a longitudinal online surv…

Contacts and behaviours of university students during the COVID-19 pandemic at the start of the 2020/21 academic year Open
CONQUEST (COroNavirus QUESTionnaire) is an online survey of contacts, behaviour, and COVID-19 symptoms for University of Bristol (UoB) staff/students. We analysed survey results from the start of the 2020/2021 academic year, prior to the s…

Measurement of electric charges on foraging bumblebees (Bombus terrestris) Open
Bumblebees carry electric charge. Almost always positive, this charge facilitates pollen transfer between bumblebee and flower during pollination and is likely to play a role in the detection of electric fields. Models of the Coulomb force…

Bumblebee hair motion in electric fields Open
Bees have been observed to detect and learn the presence of weak electric fields in various behavioural experiments in the lab. The electro-sensitivity of bumblebees has also been suggested to be important for pollination. However, the str…
