Eye can see clearly now: Identifying the locus associated with a white‐eye mutation in honey bees (Apis mellifera)

Insect Molecular Biology, EarlyView.
We performed a community science investigation with the beekeepers nationwide to find phenotypic mutants. Alongside a beekeeper in Kentucky, we performed a GWAS to identify a region associated with a white‐eye phenotype. We identified an eight bp region in a non‐coding RNA strongly associated with white eyes.

Determining Terminal Velocities of Selected Insects and Substitute Materials to Develop Future Test Procedures for Insect‐Friendly Mowing Technology

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Agricultural grasslands are vital habitats for insects that provide key ecosystem services. However, conventional rotary mowers are proposed to cause significant insect mortality due to the high rotational speed of their blades and the resulting airflow.

Detecting a Small Hive Beetle's eDNA in Honeybee Colonies

Journal 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 bee genotypes and the environment [PDF]

, 2014
Although knowledge about honey bee geographic and genetic diversity has increased tremendously in recent decades (Meixner et al., 2013), the adaptation of honey bees to their local environment has not been well studied.

Determination of Risk Factors in Beekeeping Enterprises Producing Geographically Indicated Kars Honey

Acta Veterinaria Eurasia
Beekeeping, besides yielding honey and various bee products like propo lis, beeswax, royal jelly, pollen, and bee venom, also plays an essential role in plant pollination, thereby enhancing plant production.

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

Journal 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.
