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

open access: yesEcology 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.

Broad Fungal Compatibility and Seed Size May Facilitate Invasiveness in Two Asian Terrestrial Orchids Spathoglottis plicata and Arundina graminifolia

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
Two Asian orchids, Arundina graminifolia and Spathoglottis plicata, are expanding into tropical regions worldwide, showing invasive behavior. In this study, we investigated the factors underlying their success. Both species—as all orchids—require fungal carbon to germinate, but S.

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

Machine Learning and Geospatial Modeling of Climate Change Impacts on Ethiopian Honeybees for Conservation and Resilient Agriculture

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
The current study used machine learning and geospatial analysis to predict how climate change will loosen and fragment suitable habitats for Ethiopian honeybees. Main factors like agro‐ecological zones and dry‐season precipitation were found to be critical for bee survival.

The Welsh dark bee (Apis mellifera mellifera) is not extinct

open access: yes, 2019
Due to past and present imports of Apis mellifera ligustica (Italian bees), Apis mellifera carnica (Carniolan bees) and the English Buckfast bee (a hybrid strain) across its entire natural range, Apis mellifera mellifera is now threatened with extinction by genetic pollution through hybridization. Whilst the status of remnant A. m.

Microbial Pressure and Social Immunity: Bumble Bees Increase Brood Hygiene After Exposure to a Bacillus thuringiensis‐Based Biopesticide

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
In social insect colonies, diseased or dead brood is identified and removed by workers to prevent the infection of the whole colony. Here, bumble bee larvae exposed to a bacterium (Bacillus thuringiensis ssp. aizawai (strain: ABTS‐1857)) based biopesticide were removed more frequently than wounded or untreated control larvae. This shows that bumble bee

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

open access: yesEcology 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
