The chemical components of their nests are bioactive and believed to be therapeutic for a long list of maladies. However, only recently are tests and analyses being done with molecular and modern laboratory techniques, such as high throughput EDX, HPIC, HPLC, GC, NMR, PCR, and ultrastructural SEM; coupled with diverse detectors such as DAD, RI, MS, SCD. This two-volume book is about the cerumen –plant resins mixed with stingless bee wax– and propolis, which fortify the colony in ways that are beginning to be understood. It includes reviews and new research on diverse topics involving the chemistry and bioactivity of plant resins, cerumen, propolis, besides bee and microbe behavior and ecology. These analytic studies are presented along with stingless bee biodiversity, palynology, cultural knowledge, bee foraging behavior, resin flower evolution, ecology, and evolution of nest microbe mutualisms, social immunity, human health, the decisive role of microbiology investigation in moving forward, natural history of stingless bee colonies and nests, marketing, and bibliometrics for plant resin use by bees, propolis, and the Starmerella yeast. 0aEcology .968629 0aBotany.968084 0aAgriculture.968079 0aConservation biology. 0aFood science.96501214aEcology.96862924aPlant Science.96808524aAgriculture.96807924aConservation Biology.24aFood Science.9650121 aVit, Patricia.eeditor.4edt4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt9857881 aBankova, Vassya.eeditor.4edt4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt9857891 aPopova, Milena.eeditor.4edt4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt9857901 aRoubik, David W.eeditor.4edt4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt9857912 aSpringerLink (Online service)0 tSpringer Nature eBook08iPrinted edition:z978303143273608iPrinted edition:z978303143275008iPrinted edition:z978303143276740uhttps://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-43274-3  aZDB-2-SBL  aZDB-2-SXB  c64137d64137
