Master’s Thesis Position at the Chair of Plant-Insect Interactions: Investigating Compounds That Enhance Bee Fitness

Kurzbeschreibung

In this project, we aim to investigate pollen-derived molecules that enhance bee fitness and mediate resistance to infection, working with the buff-tailed bumblebee (Bombus terrestris) as the model species. The study assesses how specific nutrients influence, e.g., larval development and survival.
