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.
