Hinf-I digestion of cytochrome oxidase I region is not a diagnostic test for A. m. lamarckii

open access: yesGenetics and Molecular Biology, 2006
Restriction fragment length polymorphism of whole mitochondrial DNA or PCR amplified mtDNA regions are known to be useful in discriminating among honey bee lineages and also some individual subspecies. In this study, PCR-amplified fragments of cytochrome

First Complete Genome of Lake Sinai Virus Lineage 3 and Genetic Diversity of Lake Sinai Virus Strains From Honey Bees and Bumble Bees

open access: yesJournal of Economic Entomology, 2020
Abstract The complete genome of Lake Sinai virus 3 (LSV3) was sequenced by the Ion Torrent next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology from an archive sample of honey bees collected in 2010. This strain M92/2010 is the first complete genome sequence of LSV lineage 3.

Positive selection in cytochrome P450 genes is associated with gonad phenotype and mating strategy in social bees

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
The honey bee, Apis mellifera differs from all other social bees in its gonad phenotype and mating strategy. Honey bee queens and drones have tremendously enlarged gonads, and virgin queens mate with several males. In contrast, in all the other bees, the

A SNP assay for assessing diversity in immune genes in the honey bee (Apis mellifera L.)

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
With a growing number of parasites and pathogens experiencing large-scale range expansions, monitoring diversity in immune genes of host populations has never been so important because it can inform on the adaptive potential to resist the invaders ...

Seasonal variation in defense behavior in European and scutellata-hybrid honey bees (Apis mellifera) in Southern California

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Nest defense in the honey bee (Apis mellifera) is a complex collective behavior modulated by various interacting social, environmental, and genetic factors. Scutellata-hybrid (“Africanized”) honey bees are usually considered to be far more defensive than
