Paenibacillus melissococcoides sp. nov., isolated from a honey bee colony affected by European foulbrood disease

International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, 2023
A novel, facultatively anaerobic, Gram-stain-positive, motile, endospore-forming bacterium of the genus Paenibacillus , designated strain 2.1T, was isolated from a colony of Apis mellifera affected by European foulbrood disease in Switzerland. The rod-shaped cells of

What proteomics has taught us about honey bee (Apis mellifera) health and disease

PROTEOMICS, Volume 25, Issue 1-2, January 2025.
Abstract The Western honey bee, Apis mellifera, is currently navigating a gauntlet of environmental pressures, including the persistent threat of parasites, pathogens, and climate change – all of which compromise the vitality of honey bee colonies.

Involvement of secondary metabolites in the pathogenesis of the American foulbrood of honey bees caused by Paenibacillus larvae [PDF]

, 2015
Covering: 2011 to end of 2014 The Gram-positive, spore-forming bacterium Paenibacillus larvae (P. larvae) is the causative agent of the epizootic American Foulbrood (AFB), a fatal brood disease of the western honey bee (Apis mellifera). AFB is one of the

Pathogen and Hemocyte Dynamics in Three Apiaries Across a Bee Season

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Honey bees are dying due to a disease complex consisting of viruses, parasites, chemicals, nutritional deficiencies, and management problems. In the present study, pathogens and hemocytes were analyzed in honey bee hemolymph samples using third‐generation sequencing and flow cytometry in three apiaries over a honey bee season. Using nanopore sequencing,

Diagnostic study on major honeybee disease, pests and predators in North Western Ethiopia

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 10, Issue 5, September 2024.
Pests and predators are causing 55.8% of colony dwindling, 19.7% of absconding, 13.2% of death and 11.4% of honey loss in Pawe, Jawi and Fagita Lekoma districts. Abstract Background The study was conducted in Pawe district from Benishangul‐Gumuz and Jawi and Fagita Lekoma districts from the Amhara region to investigate major honeybee pests, predators ...

Can fatty acids and oxytetracycline protect artificially raised larvae from developing European foulbrood? [PDF]

Apidologie, 2009
A quantitative assay for the transmission of European foulbrood (EFB) in artificially raised larvae was developed. This assay was used to determine the concentration of oxytetracycline (OTC) required to prevent larvae from developing EFB and whether 8 fatty acids (undecanoic, lauric [dodecanoic], myristic, myristoleic, ricinoleic, ricinelaidic, homo-y ...

Testing of the Efficacy of Bee Probiotic Lactobacilli Under In Vivo Conditions

Folia Veterinaria, 2023
American foulbrood is amongst the most dangerous diseases of the bee-family affecting many honeybee colonies worldwide. In countries of European Union, based on veterinary legislation, the bee colonies tested positive to American foulbrood are eradicated

Mite non‐reproduction is not a consequence of the brood removal behavior of varroa sensitive hygiene honey bee colonies (Apis mellifera)

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2024.
The specialized hygienic behavior of selected honey bees, called varroa sensitive hygiene (VSH), was thought to cause high levels of non‐reproductive mites. To further investigate this link, we used the experimental setup and data sets from a four‐year selection project designed to breed mite non‐reproduction (MNR) and VSH colonies.

Characterization of Five Novel Brevibacillus Bacteriophages and Genomic Comparison of Brevibacillus Phages. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
Brevibacillus laterosporus is a spore-forming bacterium that causes a secondary infection in beehives following European Foulbrood disease. To better understand the contributions of Brevibacillus bacteriophages to the evolution of their hosts, five novel
