The occurrence of ecto-parasitic Leptus sp. mites on Africanised honey bees [PDF]
, 2016 Honey bee-mite-pathogen associations have led to the widespread collapse of Apis mellifera colonies in various parts of the world. The global trade in bees continues to expose honey bees to new pests and pathogens.

Identification of the honey bee swarming process by analysing the time course of hive vibrations [PDF]
, 2011 Honey bees live in groups of approximately 40,000 individuals and go through their reproductive cycle by the swarming process, during which the old queen leaves the nest with numerous workers and drones to form a new colony.

The Potential Influence of Bumble Bee Visitation on Foraging Behaviors and Assemblages of Honey Bees on Squash Flowers in Highland Agricultural Ecosystems. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Bee species interactions can benefit plant pollination through synergistic effects and complementary effects, or can be of detriment to plant pollination through competition effects by reducing visitation by effective pollinators.

HiveLink, an IoT based Smart Bee Hive Monitoring System [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 HiveLink, the IoT-based Smart Bee Hive Monitoring System addresses the challenges faced by beekeepers in managing the influence of environmental impact, diseases, and collapse in honey bee colonies. Integrated with advanced sensors, the system monitors temperature, humidity, hive weight, and diurnal cycle. Leveraging IoT technology, the system provides
