Differences in the suitability of published honey bee (Apis mellifera) reference genes between the African subspecies Apis mellifera scutellata and European derived Apis mellifera

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 15, August 2025.
Abstract Quantitative real‐time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) is a method widely used to determine changes and differences in gene expression. As target gene expression is most often quantified relative to the expression of reference genes, the validation of suitable reference genes is of critical importance.

Developmental transcriptomes predict adult social behaviours in the socially flexible sweat bee, Lasioglossum baleicum

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 15, August 2025.
Abstract Natural variation can provide important insights into the genetic and environmental factors that shape social behaviour and its evolution. The sweat bee, Lasioglossum baleicum, is a socially flexible bee capable of producing both solitary and eusocial nests.

The road less taken: Dihydroflavonol 4‐reductase inactivation and delphinidin anthocyanin loss underpins a natural intraspecific flower colour variation

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 15, August 2025.
Abstract Visual cues are of critical importance for the attraction of animal pollinators, however, little is known about the molecular mechanisms underpinning intraspecific floral colour variation. Here, we combined comparative spectral analysis, targeted metabolite profiling, multi‐tissue transcriptomics, differential gene expression, sequence ...

Synergistic effect of honeybees and wild floral visitors in promoting sweet cherry fruit set in central Chile

open access: yesBiological Research
Background Recent evidence highlights the key role of wild insects as pollinators in agroecosystems, enhancing fruit set in crops such as sweet cherry (Prunus avium). In Chile, the contribution of wild insects to crop yield remains poorly understood, and

Africanización de la abeja melífera (Apis mellifera L.). Revisión de Literatura

open access: yesAgrisost, 2020
Contexto: El proceso de hibridación (africanización) de la abeja europea con abejas de origen africanos es un problema para los apicultores del continente americano, por su alta enjambrazón y defensividad, esta última dificulta en buena medida el manejo ...
