Assessment of food source profitability in honeybees (Apis mellifera): How does disturbance of foraging activity affect trophallactic behaviour?
When forager honeybees (Apis mellifera) return to the hive after a successful foraging trip, they unload the collected liquid to recipient hive mates through mouth-to-mouth contacts (trophallaxis).
