They appeared after African bees were imported to Brazil in the 1950s. By the 1980s, they had spread north to the

23、United States, outgunning native bees along the way. Their massive attacks have killed more than 1,000 people.Mario Palma, a biochemist at Sao Paulo State University in Rio Claro, Brazil, who studies social behavior in bees, wanted to understand the basis of this aggression. So he and his colleagues

24、 swung a black leather ball in front of some killer bees and collected the bees whose stingers got stuck in the ball during the attack. They also collected killer bees that remained in the cell. The analysis suggested that killer bee brains have two proteins thatin the aggressive beesquickly break i

26、” Palma said. Killer bees that remained in the cell did not make these neuropeptides, he reported. And when his team put these neuropeptides into young, less aggressive bees, they “became aggressive like older individuals”.Palma added that these neuropeptides also increase the production of energy a

27、nd alarm chemicals. They could also encourage the nerve cells in killer bees needed to make the stinging attack. “There is a fine biochemical regulation in the killer bee brain,” he said. Researchers have found these neuropeptides in other insects, but few had associated them with “fight” behavior.1

These waves come ashore at terrible speeds and cause most of the damage done to beach-front buildings,” said Huff.Huff designed the timber pilings to be partially hidden by the houses ground-to-roof shell. “The shell masks the pilings so that the house doesnt look like its st

37、anding with its pant legs (裤腿) pulled up,” said Huff.
