The Curious Case of Achromobacter eurydice, a Gram-Variable Pleomorphic Bacterium Associated with European Foulbrood Disease in Honeybees

open access: yes, 2018
Honeybees are prone to parasite and pathogen infestations/infections due to their social colony life. Bacterial pathogens in particular lead to destructive infections of the brood.

American Foulbrood in the Czech Republic: ERIC II Genotype of Paenibacillus Larvae Is Prevalent

open access: yesFrontiers in Veterinary Science, 2021
American foulbrood (AFB) is a dangerous disease of honeybees (Apis mellifera) caused by the spore-forming bacterium Paenibacillus larvae. According to the ERIC (enterobacterial repetitive intergenic consensus) classification, five genotypes are ...

Molecular Surveillance of Honey Bee Hives Using eDNA Metabarcoding During Pollination Season

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 6, November–December 2025.
Healthy honey bees are critical in safeguarding our food supply, but monitoring their health may present a significant challenge. Here, we used environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding on bee hive debris and detected species of arthropods, bacteria and fungi contributing to form the bee hive environment, including hive pests and pathogens as well as hive

Landscape‐Wide Metabarcoding Shows Interactions Among the Gut Microbiome and Pollen Diversity in the Invasive Bumblebee, Bombus terrestris

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 7, July 2025.
The study examines how environmental factors and dietary diversity influence the gut microbiome of the invasive European buff‐tailed bumblebee (Bombus terrestris) in Tasmania. We found that gut bacterial composition and diversity were significantly affected by annual precipitation, pasture percentage, temperature and interactions between pollen ...

Ecology and Pathogenicity for Honey Bee Brood of Recently Described Paenibacillus melissococcoides and Comparison With Paenibacillus dendritiformis, Paenibacillus thiaminolyticus

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 17, Issue 3, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Honey bee colonies contain thousands of individuals living in close proximity in a thermally homeostatic nest, creating ideal conditions for the thriving of numerous pathogens. Among the bacterial pathogens, Paenibacillus larvae infects larvae via the nutritive jelly that adult workers feed them, causing the highly contagious American ...

Synthesis, Characterization and in Vitro Antibacterial Activities of CdO Nanoparticle and Nano-sheet Mixed-ligand of Cadmium(ІІ) Complex [PDF]

open access: yesNanochemistry Research, 2016
Here, we report the synthesis of a Schiff-base mixed-ligand complex of cadmium(ІІ) in bulk and nano-scales via the precipitation and sonochemical methods, respectively. The complex formula is [Cd(3-bpdh)(3-bpdb)Cl2]n (1), where the ligands are 3-bpdh = 2,
