Rocky desertification exerts significant selective pressures on honeybee morphology. Honeybees undergo adaptive evolution in 19 genes such as glycogen biosynthesis. Genes like GBE promote organismal survival under desertification. ABSTRACT Unlike traditional desertification, rocky desertification is a distinct form of land degradation characterized by ...

Reproduction of Varroa destructor in sealed worker bee brood cells of Apis mellifera carnica and Apis mellifera syriaca in Jordan [PDF]
The reproduction of the honey bee mite, Varroa destructor in sealed worker bee brood cells represents an important factor for the population development of this parasite in honey bee colonies.

Age‐related downregulation of AcSirt2 impairs mitochondrial homeostasis in old bees. AcSirt2‐mediated deacetylation of FOXO enhances transcriptional activity, upregulating antioxidant enzymes (SOD, CAT) and promoting PINK1/Parkin‐mediated mitophagy. This pathway facilitates autophagosome formation and clearance of damaged mitochondria, reducing ROS ...

The wild honeybee population of Europe is in decline: Evidence from monitoring studies
Studying the population trends of wild honeybees is possible when considering that managed and wild colonies form different subpopulations within regional honeybee metapopualtions. Abstract Populations of wild western honeybees (Apis mellifera) have been neglected because the species has been considered to consist of managed colonies only.

Influence of nano-polystyrene on cyfluthrin toxicity in honeybee Apis cerana cerana Fabricius
Plastics and pesticides are commonly used and often coexist in the environment. As pollinating insects, honeybees are simultaneously exposed to both these toxins. However, there has been no study on the toxic effects of nano-polystyrene plastics (nanoPS)

Behavioral Resistance in Varroa destructor: First Evidence in Response to Acaricide?
Varroa mites exhibited population‐dependent behavioral responses: two populationw avoided tau‐fluvalinate, and none showed specific behavioral responses to amitraz and oxalic acid, despite contrasting phenotypical resistance profiles. ABSTRACT The ectoparasite Varroa destructor (Mesostigmata: Varroidae) poses a major threat to honey bee colonies due to

Efficacy of Select Gene Targets for the Management of Western Flower Thrips Through RNA Interference
Western flower thrips (WFT) cause extensive damage to crops. RNA interference (RNAi) is being extensively researched for the management of this pest. We successfully demonstrated the uptake of dsRNA by WFT through artificial diet feeding and identified Promising new targets for the development of RNAi‐based pesticides have been identified.
