Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 17, Issue 3, June 2025.ABSTRACT Honey bee colonies contain thousands of individuals living in close proximity in a thermally homeostatic nest, creating ideal conditions for the thriving of numerous pathogens. Among the bacterial pathogens, Paenibacillus larvae infects larvae via the nutritive jelly that adult workers feed them, causing the highly contagious American ...

Environmental DNA Methods for Detection of Varroa destructor in Honey Bee (Apis mellifera) Hives
Environmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 3, May–June 2025.The parasitic mite, Varroa destructor, is a worldwide problem for honey bees (Apis mellifera). Using a new species‐specific qPCR assay, we assessed the detection of V. destructor eDNA collected in honey and surface swabs from managed bee hives in Australia, where V. destructor has recently invaded, and in New Zealand, where V. destructor is established.
