This study serves as a proof‐of‐concept, demonstrating that deep shotgun sequencing of a single complex sample—stingless bee larval food—can simultaneously generate multiple genomic resources. From this dataset, we assembled three genomes (a near‐complete bacterium, a draft host mitochondrion, and a fragmented plant chloroplast) with varying ...

Current status of meliponiculture and its cultural importance in the Western Ghats, India
Literature records indicate that ethnic people from different areas of the Western Ghats practice meliponiculture. However, ethnobiological knowledge and beekeeping practices remain poorly documented. We conducted ethnographic surveys in 6 districts of Karnataka and recorded traditional uses and current practices of meliponiculture from the region.

The State of Beekeeping in India: Insights, Gaps, and Emerging Opportunities
ABSTRACT India's beekeeping industry primarily revolves around two domesticated honey bee species, Apis cerana and A. mellifera, which are central to commercial beekeeping. In addition, there are four wild honey bee species—A. dorsata, A. laboriosa (sympatric with A. dorsata), A. florea, and A. andreniformis (sympatric with A.
