Detecting a Small Hive Beetle's eDNA in Honeybee Colonies

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Early detection is important to limit the spread of invasive species. Molecular diagnosis using eDNA can be useful in this regard, but the sensitivity is often unknown. This holds true for small hive beetles (SHB), which are parasites of honeybee (HB) colonies and continue to spread globally.

Honey Bees and Vetch Pollination

open access: yes, 1952
Pollination studies in Oklahoma have been underway for several years, but most of the effort has been directed toward the production of alfalfa seed. During the 1951 season, we also made some preliminary tests to determine the effect of honey bees on the production of vetch seed.

Nocturnal Lepidopterans as Essential Pollinators of Aspidosperma pyrifolium (Apocynaceae), a Keystone Tree in the Caatinga Dry Forest

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pollination is a key ecosystem service, yet most studies focus on diurnal interactions, often overlooking nocturnal pollinators such as hawkmoths and settling moths. In arid environments, nocturnal pollination plays a crucial role in maintaining native plant species of high biocultural value, as seen in the Caatinga dry forest.

Evaluating Electric Harps and Muzzles to Mitigate the Impact of Vespa velutina nigrithorax at Beehives

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Asian hornet (Vespa velutina nigrithorax) poses a significant threat to the beekeeping industry. Using an experimental apiary of 36 hives, we simultaneously evaluated the effectiveness of two mitigation measures—muzzles and electric harps—in reducing the impact of Asian hornets on honey bee colonies.
