Genetic characterization of a polymorphic dipeptidyl aminopeptidase of Apis mellifera [PDF]
Dipeptidyl aminopeptidase (DAP) activity towards L-leucylglycine-β- naphthylamide (Leu-Gly NA) was characterized in pupae and adult extracts of Apis mellifera.

Hoarding by honeybees (Apis mellifera L.)
Abstract The food hoarding by groups of fifty bees kept in small cages and provided with sugar syrup was studied. Less food was stored in a new comb than in an old one, whether the old comb had been used for storing food or rearing brood, and there was less in drone than in worker combs.

Molecular and phylogenetic characterization of honey bee viruses, Nosema microsporidia, protozoan parasites, and parasitic mites in China [PDF]
China has the largest number of managed honey bee colonies, which produce the highest quantity of honey and royal jelly in the world; however, the presence of honey bee pathogens and parasites has never been rigorously identified in Chinese apiaries.

Genetic integrity of the Dark European honey bee (Apis mellifera mellifera) from protected populations: a genome-wide assessment using SNPs and mtDNA sequence data [PDF]
The recognition that the Dark European honey bee, Apis mellifera mellifera, is increasingly threatened in its native range has led to the establishment of conservation programmes and protected areas throughout western Europe.

Feromoni medonosne pčele (Apis mellifera L.)
Podjelu uloga između članova pčelinje zajednice, kao i funkcioniranje pčelinje zajednice omogućuje savršena komunikacija, a ona se kod pčela odvija pomoću pčelinjeg plesa i najvećim dijelom putem feromona. Feromoni u pčelinjoj zajednici imaju ulogu spajanja pčela kao jedinki u jednu kohezivnu zajednicu, tzv. superorganizam.

Energetic supplementation for maintenance or development of Apis mellifera L. colonies [PDF]
The nutritional requirements of honeybees (Apis mellifera) for their complete development need to be supplied through food sources available in the environment, since honeybees are insects that depend directly on blossoming food sources. However, at certain times a food-supply reduction can promote nutritional stress, thus necessitating food ...

Heterospecific Hymenoptera found inside the nests of Bombus impatiens (Hymenoptera: Apidae). [PDF]
The nests of social Hymenoptera are particularly attractive to species engaging in resource robbing due to their concentration of resources. Here, the identity of heterospecific intruders in Bombus impatiens nests are described, with a particular focus ...
