How Population Structure and Nest Membership Shape Pathogen Patterns in Bumble Bees

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 22, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Host density, genetic diversity and social groups are key factors influencing pathogen transmission in wildlife populations, but their interactions remain poorly understood in insects. Islands can provide natural laboratories with distinct populations that vary in density and genetic diversity, whereby dense, genetically homogeneous ...

Determination of Nosema Disease in Colonies of Kırşehir Province

open access: yesTurkish Journal of Agriculture: Food Science and Technology, 2017
The aim of the study was to determine the prevalence of Nosema disease caused by Nosema ceranae and Nosema apis in bee colonies in Kırşehir. A hundred worker honey bee samples were collected from each of 51 beekeepers in 31 locations in 5 provinces of ...

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

open access: yesEntomological 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

open access: yesEcological 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 ...

A comprehensive transcriptome data of normal and Nosema ceranae-stressed midguts of Apis mellifera ligustica workers

open access: yesData in Brief, 2019
Honeybees are pivotal pollinators of crops and wild flora, and of great importance in supporting critical ecosystem balance. Nosema ceranae, a unicellular fungal parasite that infects midgut epithelial cells of honeybees, can dramatically reduce honeybee

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

open access: yesNew 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

open access: yesInsect 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.

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

open access: yesData 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.

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

Innovative Airborne DNA Approach for Monitoring Honey Bee Foraging and Health

open access: yesEnvironmental 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
