Shotgun sequencing of honey DNA can describe honey bee derived environmental signatures and the honey bee hologenome complexity

Scientific Reports, 2020
Honey bees are large-scale monitoring tools due to their extensive environmental exploration. In their activities and from the hive ecosystem complex, they get in close contact with many organisms whose traces can be transferred into the honey, which can

A Comparative Study of Environmental Conditions, Bee Management and the Epidemiological Situation in Apiaries Varying in the Level of Colony Losses

Journal of Apicultural Science, 2014
Explaining the reasons for the increased mortality of the honey bee (Apis mellifera L.) in recent years, in Europe and North America, has become a global research priority in apicultural science.

Honey bee hearts [PDF]

Baylor University Medical Center Proceedings, 2018
At a recent family dinner, we discussed the plight of honey bees. Everywhere bees are disappearing, and a new syndrome has been coined: “Colony collapse disorder.” The etiology is unknown, though p...

Honey bee genotypes and the environment [PDF]

, 2014
Although knowledge about honey bee geographic and genetic diversity has increased tremendously in recent decades (Meixner et al., 2013), the adaptation of honey bees to their local environment has not been well studied.

Probiotic candidates for controlling Paenibacillus larvae, a causative agent of American foulbrood disease in honey bee

BMC Microbiology, 2023
Background American foulbrood (AFB) disease caused by Paenibacillus larvae is dangerous, and threatens beekeeping. The eco-friendly treatment method using probiotics is expected to be the prospective method for controlling this pathogen in honey bees ...

Selection and hybridization shaped the rapid spread of African honey bee ancestry in the Americas

bioRxiv, 2020
Recent biological invasions offer ‘natural’ laboratories to understand the genetics and ecology of adaptation, hybridization, and range limits. One of the most impressive and well-documented biological invasions of the 20th century began in 1957 when ...

Revisiting the Iberian honey bee (Apis mellifera iberiensis) contact zone: maternal and genome-wide nuclear variations provide support for secondary contact from historical refugia [PDF]

, 2015
Dissecting diversity patterns of organisms endemic to Iberia has been truly challenging for a variety of taxa, and the Iberian honey bee is no exception. Surveys of genetic variation in the Iberian honey bee are among the most extensive for any honey bee
