Cascading effects of parasitism on bumble bee foraging behavior and plant reproduction

This project examined the consequences of infection by *Crithidia bombi* influences foraging behavior of bumble bees (*Bombus impatiens*) on a chemically polymorphic plant (*Monarda fistulosa*). Includes data from laboratory assays of the effect of compounds from *M. fistulosa* on infection, foraging preference assays in tents, and germination trials with the seeds resulting from the foraging assays. All data and relevant R scripts for data analysis are included under Files.
