Biotic and Abiotic Factors Associated with Colonies Mortalities of Managed Honey Bee (Apis mellifera)

Diversity, 2019
Despite the presence of a large number of pollinators of flowering plants worldwide, the European honey bee, Apis melifera, plays the most important role in the pollination of a number of crops, including all vegetables, non-food crops and oilseed crops,

Primary producers' positions towards bears and bear conservation: Insights for human–bear coexistence

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract We present primary producers' (farmers', livestock breeders', beekeepers') positions towards bears and bear conservation as documented through semi‐structured interviews within the frame of human dimensions actions of LIFE projects implemented between 2015 and 2022 in Greece.

Antagonistic effects of endophytic fungi from Camellia reticulata pedicels on yeasts: implications for antimicrobial mechanism of nectar

Frontiers in Plant Science
Endophytic fungi are extensive in plant tissues and involved in the defense against stress from harmful microbes. The interaction between pedicel endophytic fungi and nectar yeasts is critical for maintaining nectar homeostasis.

The mitochondrial genome of Apis mellifera simensis (Hymenoptera: Apidae), an Ethiopian honey bee

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2020
The complete mitochondrial genome of Apis mellifera simensis was 16,523 bp long. The 13 protein-coding genes, two rRNAs, and 22 tRNAs resembled other Apis mitogenomes. The location of this Apis subspecies in our phylogenetic tree supported the hypothesis

Protected areas and Indigenous diets in Southeast Asia: Does proximity and level of protection matter?

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Protected areas often overlap with Indigenous areas; yet the relationships between protected areas and Indigenous diets are not fully understood. This study investigates the relationships between rural children's dietary diversity, distance from protected areas, the level of protection (IUCN category) and Indigeneity in Myanmar and Cambodia ...

Omics Insights Into the Effects of Highbush Blueberry and Cranberry Crop Agroecosystems on Honey Bee Health and Physiology

PROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Honey bees (Apis mellifera) are vital pollinators in fruit‐producing agroecosystems like highbush blueberry (HBB) and cranberry (CRA). However, their health is threatened by multiple interacting stressors, including pesticides, pathogens, and nutritional changes.

Intensity of Nosema ceranae infection is associated with specific honey bee gut bacteria and weakly associated with gut microbiome structure

Scientific Reports, 2019
The honey bee, Apis mellifera, pollinates a wide variety of essential crops in numerous ecosystems around the world but faces many modern challenges. Among these, the microsporidian pathogen Nosema ceranae is one of the primary detriments to honey bee ...
