a.i./bee: active ingredient per bee; 95% CI: 95% confidence interval; Dead: amount of immature bees (mostly larvae) that did die (i.e. not emerged) per treatment; Live: amount of bees that did emerge per treatment and its respective caste after we did perform a morphological analysis for presence/absence of spermatheca and corbiculae; Total: total number of larvae transferred for rearing plates per treatment; Std. Error: Standard Error; z-value: Standard score, i.e. standard deviations from their means. Negative values when raw score is below the mean, positive when above; Pr(>|z|): probability to find z-scores by chance.
