Comparative Identification of MicroRNAs in Apis cerana cerana Workers’ Midguts in Response to Nosema ceranae Invasion [PDF]
Insects, 2019 Here, the expression profiles and differentially expressed miRNAs (DEmiRNAs) in the midguts of Apis cerana cerana workers at 7 d and 10 d post-inoculation (dpi) with N. ceranae were investigated via small RNA sequencing and bioinformatics. Five hundred and twenty nine (529) known miRNAs and 25 novel miRNAs were identified in this study, and the ...

Targeting the honey bee gut parasite Nosema ceranae with siRNA positively affects gut bacteria
BMC Microbiology, 2020 Background Gut microbial communities can contribute positively and negatively to host health. So far, eight core bacterial taxonomic clusters have been reported in honey bees. These bacteria are involved in host metabolism and defenses. Nosema ceranae is
