Characterizing the Impact of Commercial Pollen Substitute Diets on the Level of Nosema spp. in Honey Bees (Apis mellifera L.). [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
Western honey bee (Apis mellifera L.) populations face declines commonly attributed to pesticide, pathogen, and parasite stress. One way beekeepers combat these stressors is by providing supplemental protein diets to honey bee colonies to ensure adequate

Effect of Fumagillin upon Nosema apis (Zander)

Nature, 1953
A PRELIMINARY report by Katznelson and Jamieson1 on the effect of the antibiotic fumagillin (derived from an Aspergillus culture designated H–32) upon the infection of the adult honey bee by the microsporidian Nosema apis indicated promising results. They suggested that the action of the drug was prophylactic in nature, killing the infective amœboid ...

The State of Beekeeping in India: Insights, Gaps, and Emerging Opportunities

Entomological Research, Volume 55, Issue 10, October 2025.
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.

Are honey bees altering wild plant–bee interactions in reconstructed native habitats? An investigation of summer season effects in row‐crop agroecosystems with prairie strips

Ecological Entomology, Volume 50, Issue 5, Page 807-823, October 2025.
We investigated the compatibility of beekeeping with pollinator conservation in ‘prairie strips’ a conservation practice integrating native prairie habitat into agricultural environments. At prairie strip sites with and without a honey bee apiary, we analysed plant–bee interactions and bumble bee body conditions to determine the effect of apiaries on ...

Biological control of nosemosis in Apis mellifera L. with Acacia nilotica extract

Scientific Reports
Nosemosis is one of the most devastating diseases of Apis mellifera (Honey bees) caused by the single-celled spore-forming fungi Nosema apis, N. ceranae and N. neumanii, causing a severe loss on the colony vitality and productivity.

MicroRNA dataset of normal and Nosema ceranae-infected midguts of Apis cerana cerana workers

Data in Brief, 2019
Nosema ceranae is a widespread fungal pathogen of honeybees, which is infective to all castes in the colony, including queens, drones and workers. Nosemosis caused by N. ceranae poses a big challenge for apiculture all over the world.

Recommended dosage and environmental risk assessment of insecticides registered on main pyralid borers in China

New Plant Protection, Volume 2, Issue 3, September 2025.
Based on the registration information of insecticides for controlling the main pyralid borers, active ingredients with high dosages were identified and analyzed based on formulations and target pests. Additionally, the environmental risks on honeybees were assessed.

‘Disease‐smart’ outcrossing can enhance individual fitness and increase survival via immune priming against pathogens: New approaches to strengthen genetic rescue efforts

Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 18, Issue 5, Page 786-797, September 2025.
Our study provides a proof of concept for combining immune priming with assisted migration for insect conservation. Introducing genetically diverse, immune‐primed migrants improves both pathogen resistance and reproductive success in inbred individuals.

Retrospective study of the Nosema ceranae infection of honey bee colonies in Iran (2004-2013)

Archives of Razi Institute, 2014
Nosemosis is the most common disease in adult bees. Nosema apis and Nosema ceranae species are agents of important economic losses to beekeepers around the world. The severity of disease at various area is different. Previously, N.

Innovative Airborne DNA Approach for Monitoring Honey Bee Foraging and Health

Environmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 4, July–August 2025.
Using a novel modification of our simple hand airborne eDNA samplers this pilot study demonstrates that eDNA filtered from the air of a honey been colony has the strong potential for rapid screening of honey bee health and for the study of bee foraging behavior. ABSTRACT Environmental DNA (eDNA) refers to genetic material collected from the environment
