Answering key bumble bee conservation questions by studying discovered wild nests: A Bombus affinis case study

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 18, Issue 3, Page 303-318, May 2025.
The information learned from discovered wild bumble bee nests can be of great conservation value if studied in situ and post‐season excavation in a standardised way. We provide standardised guidance to follow when nest discoveries arise, including key conservation questions and methodological guidelines to study behaviour, floral use, genetics, body ...

Notes on Nosema apis Zander

open access: yesThe Journal of Parasitology, 1920
Aside from Nosema bombycis Nageli, no other Microsporidian has received so much attention of investigators as Nosema apis Zander. A disease of adult honey bees for which the Microsporidian is responsible, and which is known by different names such as Nosema-Seuche, Isle of Wight disease, Nosema disease, etc., has been reported to occur in various parts

Potential expanded pollinator distributions in North America under future climate

open access: yesEcological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 6, Issue 2, April–June 2025.
Most pollinator species, including monarch butterflies, may gain potential climate space in the future. Shifting to new locations is an additional challenge of climate change. Management, restoration and citizen participation to provide resources and reduce stressors are ecological solutions.

Individual Variability of Nosema ceranae Infections in Apis mellifera Colonies

open access: yesInsects, 2012
Since 2006, beekeepers have reported increased losses of Apis mellifera colonies, and one factor that has been potentially implicated in these losses is the microsporidian Nosema ceranae. Since N.

The role of disease in bee foraging ecology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Diseases have important but understudied effects on bee foraging ecology. Bees transmit and contract diseases on flowers, but floral traits including plant volatiles and inflorescence architecture may affect transmission. Diseases spill over from managed

A Review of Nosema cerane and Nosema apis: Caracterization and Impact for Beekeeping

open access: yesBulletin of University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine Cluj-Napoca. Animal Science and Biotechnologies, 2019
Two microsporidia have been described infecting honey bees worldwide: Nosema apis and Nosema ceranae. The infecting forms of the parasite are the spores, ingested by the adult host insects. Studies demonstrated that the infection with Nosema spp. range from less than 1 to 100 percent, this disease reduces worker longevity by 22-44% which in turn ...

Sublethal effects of acaricides and Nosema ceranae infection on immune related gene expression in honeybees [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Nosema ceranae is an obligate intracellular parasite and the etiologic agent of Nosemosis that affects honeybees. Beside the stress caused by this pathogen, honeybee colonies are exposed to pesticides under beekeeper intervention, such as acaricides to ...

honeybee workers exhibit conserved molecular responses to diverse pathogens [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Background Organisms typically face infection by diverse pathogens, and hosts are thought to have developed specific responses to each type of pathogen they encounter.

Evaluation of Antimicrosporidian Activity of Plant Extracts on Nosema ceranae

open access: yesJournal of Apicultural Science, 2016
Nosemosis is one of the most common protozoan diseases of adult bees (Apis mellifera). Nosemosis is caused by two species of microsporidia; Nosema apis and Nosema ceranae.

Human Microsporidial Infections [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Microsporidia are eukaryotic, spore forming obligate intracellular parasites, first recognised over 100 years ago. Microsporidia are becoming increasingly recognised as infectious pathogens causing intestinal and extra-intestinal diseases in both immuno ...
