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.

Microbiome and floral associations of a wild bee using biodiversity survey collections

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 26, Issue 6, June 2024.
The core microbiome of the bicoloured sweat bee, Agapostemon virescens, is described for the first time using pinned museum specimens. Collection method and geographic variation in microbial and plant diversity are also characterised. Ongoing wild bee surveys have potential to reveal hidden stressors underpinning bee health and dietary breadth ...

Bacterial Agents for Biocontrol of American Foulbrood (AFB) of Larvae Honey Bee

Microbiology Research
Bee colonies are constantly threatened by a bacterial larvae disease called American foulbrood, caused by the Gram-positive bacterium Paenibacillus larvae. This is a highly specialized pathogen with only one established host, the honey bee larvae.

Everything, everywhere, all at once - Surveillance and molecular epidemiology reveal Melissococcus plutonius is endemic among Michigan, US beekeeping operations.

PLoS ONE
European foulbrood (EFB) is a severe bacterial disease of honey bee brood often leading to significant declines in colony health and honey production. The dearth of data on this disease in the United States (US) complicates response efforts.

Seasonal Incidence and Management of European Foulbrood Diseases in Apis mellifera L. Colonies of Kangra Valley of Himachal Pradesh, India

Microbiology Research Journal International
The introduction of the European honey bee (Apis mellifera) into Asia has contributed to the spread of various pathogens, including Acarapis woodi, European foulbrood (EFB), and Sac brood. The study aims to seasonal incidence and management of European foulbrood diseases in Apis mellifera L. Colonies of Kangra Valley of Himachal Pradesh.

Antimicrobial control and temporal dynamics of M. plutonius colonization in adult worker honey bees (Apis mellifera).

PLoS ONE
European foulbrood (EFB) is a stress-associated brood disease affecting honey bee larvae, caused by infection with Melissococcus plutonius. Adult bees are suggested to be a reservoir for this bacterium; however, the duration of M.
