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.

Identification of novel miRNAs from the microsporidian parasite Nosema ceranae

open access: yesInfection, Genetics and Evolution, 2021
Previously, six miRNAs were identified from the microsporidian parasite Nosema ceranae. By taking advantage of the recently updated N. ceranae and honey bee genome assemblies, we re-analyzed the deep sequencing datasets. Three novel miRNAs were identified, which were further validated by plasmid cloning and sequencing.

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

Metabolomics-based biomarker discovery for bee health monitoring : a proof of concept study concerning nutritional stress in Bombus terrestris [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Bee pollinators are exposed to multiple natural and anthropogenic stressors. Understanding the effects of a single stressor in the complex environmental context of antagonistic/synergistic interactions is critical to pollinator monitoring and may serve ...

Microbial Evolution in Allodapine Bees: Perspectives From Trophallactic, Socially Plastic Pollinators

open access: yesEvolutionary Applications, Volume 18, Issue 7, July 2025.
ABSTRACT This review seeks a deeper functional understanding of wild bee microbiomes by focusing on a tribe of bees where natural history and behavioral ecology are well known but investigations of microbiology are just beginning. Opportunities to improve our future knowledge of pathogens to insect pollinators are explored—which have broad ...

Long-Term Temporal Trends of Nosema spp. Infection Prevalence in Northeast Germany: Continuous Spread of Nosema ceranae, an Emerging Pathogen of Honey Bees (Apis mellifera), but No General Replacement of Nosema apis

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2017
The Western honey bee (Apis mellifera) is widely used as commercial pollinator in worldwide agriculture and, therefore, plays an important role in global food security.

Novi trendovi u kontroli Nosema ceranae

open access: yes, 2022
The microsporidian Nosema ceranae is an obligate intestinal parasite of the honey bee (Apis mellifera). It causes nosemosis and, depending on the infection level and the strength of the infected bee colonies, causes significant health disorders, including malfunction of reproductive and productive capabilities of bees. The antibiotic fumagillin was the

Synthesis and Evaluation of Pseudoglucosinolates Releasing Isothiocyanates in the Presence of Azoreductases

open access: yesChemBioChem, Volume 26, Issue 12, June 16, 2025.
An expansion of the concept of pseudoglucosinolates (psGSLs) is reported introducing the first azoreductase‐responsive psGSL‐based probe releasing an isothiocyanate under simultaneous fluorescence turn‐on in the presence of AzoR, an azoreductase from Escherichia coli.

First Detection of Nosema ceranae Infecting Apis mellifera in India

open access: yesJournal of Apicultural Science, 2019
Apis mellifera colonies were sampled for over twelve months to study the Nosema infection in different apiaries of Himachal Pradesh, India. We found that the infection incidence was highest in the winter season (48.40 %) followed by autumn and rainy ...
