Metabolomics-based biomarker discovery for bee health monitoring : a proof of concept study concerning nutritional stress in Bombus terrestris [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Bee pollinators are exposed to multiple natural and anthropogenic stressors. Understanding the effects of a single stressor in the complex environmental context of antagonistic/synergistic interactions is critical to pollinator monitoring and may serve ...

Population Genomics Reveals Genetic Diversity, Introgression, and Genetic Differentiation in Tianshan Mountains Western Honeybees (Apis mellifera)

open access: yesEvolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT The Tianshan Mountains, which host two native subspecies of western honeybees, represent the easternmost natural distribution limit of Apis mellifera. The managed Xinjiang black honeybee (XJ), introduced a century ago and designated as a Chinese National Animal Genetic Resource, has expanded rapidly under anthropogenic management.

Air pollution and its multifaceted effects on insect pollinators: A review

open access: yesEcological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 1, Page 1-17, February 2026.
Air pollution disrupts plant‐pollinator interactions by impairing floral signal transmission, altering foraging behaviour, and reducing pollinator fitness, flight efficiency, reproduction and survival, posing serious threats to ecological stability.

Neuronal Plasticity in the Mushroom Bodies of Winter Bees Is Retained Despite Substantially Advanced Age

open access: yesDevelopmental Neurobiology, Volume 85, Issue 4, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Honeybee (Apis mellifera) workers exhibit remarkable behavioral plasticity throughout adult life. In spring and summer, they transition through diverse tasks over a short lifespan of 4–6 weeks. This involves dramatic changes in sensory environment and cognitive demands associated with pronounced structural neuronal plasticity in the mushroom ...

Antifungal Activities of Propolis Collected by Different Races of Honeybees Against Yeasts Isolated From Patients With Superficial Mycoses

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2005
Yeasts isolated from patients with superficial mycoses were tested against propolis samples collected from different regions and honeybee races. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values obtained using the agar dilution methods were compared to ...
