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.

Transcriptome Analyses of the Honeybee Response to Nosema ceranae and Insecticides

PLoS ONE, 2014
Honeybees (Apis mellifera) are constantly exposed to a wide variety of environmental stressors such as parasites and pesticides. Among them, Nosema ceranae and neurotoxic insecticides might act in combination and lead to a higher honeybee mortality. We investigated the molecular response of honeybees exposed to N.

Presence of Nosema ceranae associated with honeybee queen introductions

Infection, Genetics and Evolution, 2014
Microsporidiosis caused by Nosema species is one of the factors threatening the health of the honeybee (Apis mellifera), which is an essential element in agriculture mainly due to its pollination function. The dispersion of this pathogen may be influenced by many factors, including various aspects of beekeeping management such as introduction of queens

Silencing of EhAQP1, EhPTP2, and EhTK Genes in Ecytonucleospora Hepatopenaei Using RNA Interference: A Potential Strategy for Preventing and Treating EHP Infection in Shrimp

Aquaculture Research, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Ecytonucleospora hepatopenaei (EHP) is an obligate intracellular parasitic pathogen of shrimp, causing growth retardation and increased susceptibility to opportunistic infections. Currently, there are few reports on the prevention and treatment of EHP infection in shrimp, and research on its drug targets is limited.

Sex-specific differences in pathogen susceptibility in honey bees (Apis mellifera).

PLoS ONE, 2014
Sex-related differences in susceptibility to pathogens are a common phenomenon in animals. In the eusocial Hymenoptera the two female castes, workers and queens, are diploid and males are haploid.

Bees on the run: Nosema spp. (Microsporidia) in Apis mellifera and related products, Italy

Frontiers in Veterinary Science
IntroductionThe decline of the European/western honeybee (Apis mellifera) population is on account of a plethora of microorganisms, such as Nosema apis and Nosema ceranae, two microsporidian fungi responsible of nosemosis that affects welfare and ...

Nosema Ceranae DNA in Honey Bee Haemolymph and Honey Bee Mite Varroa Destructor/DNK Nosema Ceranae U Hemolimfi Pčela I Pčelinjem Krpelju Varroa Destructor

Acta Veterinaria, 2014
Pčelinji krpelj Varroa destructor i mikrosporidija Nosema ceranae su najznačajniji faktori rizika po zdravlje pčela i pčelarstvo. Dugo se smatralo da N. apis i N. ceranae infi ciraju isključivo ćelije crevnog epitela pčela, međutim neki nalazi ukazuju na

Epidemiology of Nosema spp. and the effect of indoor and outdoor wintering on honey bee colony population and survival in the Canadian Prairies

PLoS ONE, 2021
The epidemiology of Nosema spp. in honey bees, Apis mellifera, may be affected by winter conditions as cold temperatures and differing wintering methods (indoor and outdoor) provide varying levels of temperature stress and defecation flight opportunities.

Colonization patterns of Nosema ceranae in the Azores archipelago

, 2022
Nosema ceranae and Nosema apis are pathogens of honey bees that cause nosemosis, a disease implicated in colony losses worldwide. They are obligate intracellular pathogens infecting the midgut epithelial cells of adult honey bees. Although N. ceranae was originally a pathogen specific of Apis cerana, currently, it is found in Apis mellifera throughout ...
