文章中有一段在描述研究員研究蜜蜂與新菸鹼類之間的關係 The researchers went on to feed ten colonies with an artificial pollen supplement, lacing the supply to half those colonies with clothianidin. After a 12-week regime that mimicked the pattern of exposure in the fields, the bees that had grown up in the hives getting spiked food had 23% shorter lifespans and were poorer foragers. 請問倒數第二行中的spiked food要怎麼理解比較好呢？另外 Neonicotinoids have not been found responsible for big declines in the bee populations, or widespreadcolony collapses. Bayer and Syngenta both argue the new results do not support a ban on the chemicals...... Jeremy Kerr says they show that the insecticides increase the risks for bees of various species, acting as "a kind of reproductive roulette". 請問最後一行的 reproductive roulette 要翻成什麼比較好呢？謝謝! -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc), 來自: 118.170.32.145 ※ 文章網址: https://www.ptt.cc/bbs/Eng-Class/M.1500397534.A.46D.html
