Apiculture commodity development in Goma District: experiences from IPMS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Goma is endowed with different flora and adequate moisture which favors honey production. As a result, bee farmers started producing honey since time immemorial using traditional hives, mostly made of bamboo.

Noah's Raven, Noah's Son: The Metamorphoses of Blackness in Early Modern Readings of Genesis 8‐9

open access: yesRenaissance Studies, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Over the past half‐century, scholars have offered various theories to explain when and how an aetiology for black skin became part of the reception history of the so‐called Curse of Ham in Genesis 9—a text that does not include any reference to skin colour.

Seasonal shifts in mitochondrial and reactive oxygen species metabolism are linked to ultrastructural remodelling in honey bees (Apis mellifera)

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Seasonal changes profoundly reshape honey bee mitochondrial metabolism. In winter, bees shift from complex I (CI)‐ to mitochondrial glycerol‐3‐phosphate dehydrogenase (mG3PDH)‐ and complex II (CII)‐linked respiration. Despite lower CI‐linked respiration ATP production is maintained, suggesting increased energetic efficiency in ...

Beyond Average Hive Performance: Tail Risk Measurement in Italian Apiculture With Honey‐at‐Risk

open access: yesEnvironmetrics, Volume 37, Issue 5, July 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper provides a framework for measuring honey‐production risk that complements standard mean‐based analyses by explicitly targeting downside tail risk. Using hive‐weight data from a large sample of Italian hives over the period 2021–2024, downside tail risk is quantified through the Honey‐at‐Risk (HaR) metric, defined as the quantile of ...

Tropical Bee Assemblage Diversity Decreases With Elevation While Body Size Increases

open access: yesBiotropica, Volume 58, Issue 4, July 2026.
Photos of bee specimens collected in the Colombian Andes across a nearly 3000 m elevational cline. They are arranged to illustrate both the decline in richness with elevation and the increase in community average body size with elevation. ABSTRACT Elevation gradients are powerful drivers of changes in species composition, richness, and functional ...

Insects and Survival: A Review of Primary and Secondary Defense Strategies

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 7, Page 601-624, July 2026.
Based on a review of three decades of literature, insect defense mechanisms are classified into primary (I) and secondary (II) mechanisms of behavioral, morphological, and chemical nature. These mechanisms have been recorded in 22 (I) and 20 (II) orders, respectively.

Extrafloral nectaries on Cenchrus americanus (L.) Morrone

open access: yesAgricultural &Environmental Letters, Volume 11, Issue 1, June 2026.
Abstract Pearl millet, Cenchrus americanus (L.) Morrone (formerly Pennisetum glaucum L.), used for food and feed, has pollen that attracts multiple insect species. In 2023, honey bees and wasps were observed foraging on or below the auricles of pearl millet in a Georgia field.

The Wonders of Vanilla: Celebrating the 150th Anniversary of Synthetic Vanillin

open access: yesChemFoodChem, Volume 2, Issue 2, June 2026.
The year 2024 marked the 150th anniversary of the first commercial production of vanillin, one of the world's most cherished flavor ingredients. This review traces vanilla's history from Mesoamerica to modern production methods, examines its composition, the discovery of vanillin and Haarmann's early synthesis compared to modern methods, and highlights
