Linking evolutionary lineage with parasite and pathogen prevalence in the Iberian honey bee

Journal of Invertebrate Pathology, 2012
The recent decline in honey bee colonies observed in both European countries and worldwide is of great interest and concern, although the underlying causes remain poorly understood. In recent years, growing evidence has implicated parasites and pathogens in this decline of both the vitality and number of honey bee colonies.

A qPCR assay for sensitive and rapid detection of African A-lineage honey bees (Apis mellifera)

Apidologie, 2021
A real-time qPCR assay was designed to detect African-derived subspecies of western honey bees (Apis mellifera L.). The probes targeted the same region of the mitochondrial cytochrome b gene used in previous restriction enzyme assays. Using samples from 16 A.

Evidence from mitochondrial DNA that African honey bees spread as continuous maternal lineages

Nature, 1989
African honey bees have populated much of South and Central America and will soon enter the United States. The mechanism by which they have spread is controversial. Africanization may be largely the result of paternal gene flow into extant European populations or, alternatively, of maternal migration of feral swarms that have maintained an African ...

Using morphometric analysis of honey bee (Apis mellifera) colonies to identify lineages and subspecies on the isolated island of Newfoundland

2022
The Island of Newfoundland’s honey bees, Apis mellifera Linnaeus, are relatively disease free compared to other populations and have an exceptional winter survival record. Perhaps these qualities arose due to the Island’s isolation from parasites such as Varroa destructor and lower pesticide use compared to the Canadian mainland.

Comparative analysis of mitochondrial genomes of the honey bee subspecies A. m. caucasica and A. m. carpathica and refinement of their evolutionary lineages

Journal of Apicultural Research, 2019
The complete mitochondrial genome sequences of the honey bee subspecies Apis mellifera caucasica and Apis mellifera carpathica were analyzed for the first time.

A thelytokous lineage of socially parasitic honey bees has retained heterozygosity despite at least 10 years of inbreeding.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution, 2011
The honey bee population of South Africa is divided into two subspecies: a northern population in which queenless workers reproduce arrhenotokously and a southern one in which workers reproduce thelytokously. A hybrid zone separates the two, but on at least three occasions the northern population has become infested by reproductive workers derived from

The effect of a regional legislative act on the distribution of honey bee mitochondrial DNA lineages.

A few national or regional legislative acts or initiatives have been introduced in Europe to preserve the genetic integrity of native honey bee subspecies. In Italy, for example, the region Emilia-Romagna (North of Italy) has been one of the first regional authorities that issued a regional law, specifically addressed for this purpose, focused on the ...
