Morphological Diversity of Moroccan Honey Bees (Apis mellifera L. 1758): Insights from a Geometric Morphometric Study of Wing Venation in Honey Bees from Different Climatic Regions

Diversity
The morphological diversity of Moroccan honey bees (Apis mellifera) was investigated using geometric morphometrics to assess wing venation patterns among three populations representing three climatic zones: desert, semiarid, and Mediterranean. A total of

Taxonomically restricted genes are associated with the evolution of sociality in the honey bee

BMC Genomics, 2011
Background Studies have shown that taxonomically restricted genes are significant in number and important for the evolution of lineage specific traits. Social insects have gained many novel morphological and behavioral traits relative to their solitary ...

Morphometric Identification of An Unknown Honey Bee Colony: An Example From North India

Journal of Apicultural Science
Identification of the honey bee (Apis mellifera) subspecies is an important aspect of bee breeding and biodiversity conservation. The identification can be based on molecular or morphological markers.

Spatial patterns of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) support a scenario of secondary contact in Iberian honey bees (Apis mellifera iberiensis) [PDF]

, 2015
Dissecting diversity patterns of organisms endemic to Iberia has been truly challenging for a variety of plant and animal taxa, and the Iberian honey bee (A. m. iberiensis) is no exception. Here we used a genome-wide data set of 309 neutrally-tested SNPs,

Diversity and evolution of the transposable element repertoire in arthropods with particular reference to insects

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2019
Background Transposable elements (TEs) are a major component of metazoan genomes and are associated with a variety of mechanisms that shape genome architecture and evolution.

Patterns of single nucleotide polymorphism (snp) variation: further insights into the complex history of the iberian honeybee [PDF]

, 2013
The Iberian Peninsula harbours the greatest honeybee genetic diversity and complexity in Europe. The challenge of deciphering the mechanisms underlying such complexity has led to numerous morphological and molecular marker-based surveys of the Iberian ...
