The behaviour of these bees has been adapted to some extent to meet
beekeeping requirements but few advances have been made in altering
their behaviour so that honey and wax production is increased. Bee
pheromone research aims to identify the pheromones and make
analogous synthetic chemicals thus allowing the control of the
colony's activities and enhancing honey production. This book
evaluates the present state of knowledge of each known pheromone,
discusses the pheromones of the stingless bees and describes the
effect of pheromones on the social organization and mating
behaviour of bumblebees. Suggestions are made for further and
different types of research into pheromones. The book should be of
interest to zoologists, entomologists and general biologists.
