Symbiont‐Mediated Detoxification of Xenobiotics in Honey Bees

Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 19, Issue 7, July 2026.
This Opinion proposes that honey bee detoxification should be viewed as a holobiont trait. Gut microbes can transform selected ingested xenobiotics and modulate host detoxification pathways, providing a basis for microbial biotechnology strategies to protect pollinators.

Unravelling the Interplay Between Vairimorpha ceranae and Viruses in Geographically Isolated Honey Bee (Apis mellifera) Populations

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Viral infections and the microsporidian Vairimorpha ceranae (‘vairimorpha’) have been involved in elevated honey bee (Apis mellifera) colony losses as a result of their individual or combined actions, with the ectoparasitic mite Varroa destructor (‘varroa’) often exacerbating these effects.

Cloning and Characterization of Phospholipases A2 and Hyaluronidase Genes from the Venom of the Honeybee Apis mellifera carnica (Hymenoptera: Apidae)

Sociobiology, 2014
Bee venom contains the allergic enzymes phospholipases A2 (PLA2) and hyaluronidase. These enzymes have been extensively studied as therapeutic modalities because of their proven effects in pharmaceutical and clinical applications.

Ensemble Modeling Reveals Threats to Pollination Services From Asynchronous Range Shifts Between Camellia oleifera and Its Specialized Wild Bee Pollinators

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
This study employed ensemble species distribution models (SSDMs) to project the potential distributions of C. oleifera and these two key pollinators under current and future climate scenarios. We integrated field survey data with open biodiversity database records to simulate suitable habitats and quantify their spatiotemporal overlap.

Wake Up and Smell the Infected Bees: Volatile Cues of Vairimorpha Infection in Honey Bees

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
Infection can modify host volatile emissions, yet effects in adult honey bees remain unexplored. Using dynamic headspace sampling and GC × GC–MS, we show that Vairimorpha spp. infection significantly alters the volatile profile of adult worker honey bees over a 14‐day time series, producing stage‐specific shifts in multivariate odour structure.

Population Genetic Study of vitellogenin in Honey Bees (Apis mellifera) With European Ancestry Identifies Two Ancestral Genetic Backgrounds

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
Our work shows that honey bee vitellogenin (Vg) segregates into two main haplotype versions (haplogroups) defined by 65 common polymorphisms. One haplogroup is abundant in A. m. mellifera conservatory samples, and at the protein level, we identify protein‐coding differences concentrated in the lipid‐binding cavity. This provides a foundation for future

Infestation levels of Varroa destructor in local honey bees of Jordan [PDF]

, 2008
To determine Varroa mite infestation levels in Jordan, a survey covering 180 colonies of two bee types (Apis m. syriaca and Apis m. syriaca hybrids) from six locations of 4 climatic zones was conducted during August, 8 month after the last treatment ...

Silencing SGO2 by Oxamic Acid Dissociates Glycolysis and BRCA1‐Mediated DNA Repair to Improve the Chemosensitivity of Lung Adenocarcinoma

Exploration, Volume 6, Issue 3, June 2026.
SGO2 interacts with BRCA1 to inhibit BRCA1 ubiquitination and degradation, thereby promoting BRCA1‐induced DNA damage repair signaling and reducing the chemo sensitivity of LUADa. OA targets glycolysis to disrupt H3K18la‐ and H3K27ac‐mediated chromatin accessibility, repressing SGO2 transcription and subsequently alleviating SGO2‐mediated cancer ...

Pollination of Apis cerana cerana in flowering period of olive based on DNA metabarcoding

, 2023
Apis cerana cerana had the largest number of pollinators in olive, so in order to determine whether A. cerana cerana was a pollinator of olive trees, this study was conducted to analyze the plant species in pollens carried by A.
