- Abstract
Keywords: Apis mellifera; Bombus terrestris; flower volatiles; electroantennography (EAG); olfactory behavior; melon EN Apis mellifera Bombus terrestris flower volatiles electroantennography (EAG) olfactory behavior melon 973 19 11/17/22 20221101 NES 221101 1. EAG Recording The standard compounds for EAG recording were determined according to the identification results of volatile compounds in female and male flowers of melon. The contents and types of volatile compounds in melon flowers of these varieties are different, which may be due to the genotypes, or environmental factors such as temperature and humidity, soil, water conditions, analysis conditions of volatile compounds, and precision of GC-MS instruments [[26]]. When the antennae of bees were stimulated by the same volatiles, the EAG response induced by some volatiles was stronger in I B. terrestris i than in I A. mellifera i , while others were just the opposite.
