Dominance of African racial ancestry in honey bee colonies of Mexico 30 years after the migration of hybrids from South America

Evolutionary Applications
The Africanized honey bee, a hybrid of Apis mellifera scutellata from Africa with European subspecies, has been considered an invasive species and a problem for beekeeping.

Honey-bee viruses

, 1971
Three known viruses infect honey-bees. Two can cause paralysis and early death of adult bees but only one, chronic bee-paralysis virus, is known to do so in nature.

Allele Frequencies of Genetic Variants Associated with Varroa Drone Brood Resistance (DBR) in Apis mellifera Subspecies across the European Continent

Insects
Implementation of marker-assisted selection (MAS) in modern beekeeping would improve sustainability, especially in breeding programs aiming for resilience against the parasitic mite Varroa destructor.

New COI-COII mtDNA Region Haplotypes in the Endemic Honey Bees Apis mellifera intermissa and Apis mellifera sahariensis (Hymenoptera: Apidae) in Algeria

Insects
The practice of beekeeping in Algeria is of great cultural, social, and economic importance. However, the importation of non-local subspecies reported by beekeepers has disrupted the natural geographical distribution area and the genetic diversity of the

How many SNPs are needed to provide an accurate estimate of lineage C introgression into black honey bees?

, 2013
Beekeeping activities, especially queen trading, have shaped the distribution of honey bees subspecies in Europe, which have resulted in extensive introductions of two lineage C subspecies, A. m. ligustica and A. m. carnica, into western Europe. As a consequence, replacement and gene flow between native and commercial populations have been occurring at

Positiv externality of honey production

Bee-keeping and honey production has a long history in Hungary. Honey is an important and healthy food of people and it can be consumed without any human processing. The honey production has important role, too.

A novel SNP-based tool for estimating C-lineage introgression in the dark honey bee (Apis mellifera mellifera)

, 2018
The natural distribution ofthe honeybee (Apis mellifera L.) hás been changed by humans in recent decades to such an extent that the formerly widest-spread European subspecies, Apís mellifera mellifera, is threatened by extinction through introgression from highly divergent commercial strains in large tracts of its range. Conservation efforts for A.

Honey bee colony losses: what's happening in South America?

, 2016
The concerns for the effects of honey bee declines have spurred several large-scale surveys of honey bee health around the world to evaluate potential drivers of colony losses.
