Development of Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent and Immunochromatography Assays for Diagnosing Nosema ceranae Infection in Honey Bees [PDF]
InsectsNosema ceranae (N. ceranae) infection is prevalent globally, causing a decline in bee populations and significant economic losses to apiarists. Although several methods have been proposed for diagnosing Nosema infections, limitations in these methods ...

Nosemosis negatively affects honeybee survival: experimental and meta-analytic evidence
ParasitologyNosemosis, caused by microsporidian parasites of the genus Nosema, is considered a significant health concern for insect pollinators, including the economically important honeybee (Apis mellifera).

Exploring Eco-Friendly Microbial Strategies for Nosemosis Control in Honeybee. [PDF]
MicroorganismsNosemosis is an intestinal infection caused by intracellular fungal organisms from the Vairimorpha (formerly Nosema) group, which seriously harms honeybee colonies and is a factor in their worldwide decline. With the ban on fumagillin use in European apiculture and the limitations of conventional treatments, it is essential to identify sustainable ...

EFSA Journal, Volume 21, Issue 12, December 2023., 2023 Abstract Following a request from the European Commission, EFSA was asked to deliver a scientific opinion on the safety and efficacy of Pediococcus acidilactici CNCM I‐4622 as a zootechnical additive (functional group: physiological condition stabilisers) for all insects. The active agent used in the additive is already authorised for use in all animal

Honeybee visitation to shared flowers increases Vairimorpha ceranae prevalence in bumblebees
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 13, Issue 9, September 2023., 2023 We conducted an observational study among different pollinator communities in agricultural fields to understand (1) how floral visitation patterns differ among pollinator species and (2) whether the visitation patterns are linked with V. ceranae prevalence in honeybees and bumblebees.

Global Change Biology, Volume 29, Issue 15, Page 4193-4211, August 2023., 2023 Metagenomics is a powerful tool to track both the population genetics and environmental stressors wildlife encounter across landscapes. This study examines wild bees across an urban gradient to determine gene flow and changes in microbiome. Densely urban areas have lower habitat connectivity and higher pathogen loads indicating regions of immediate ...

PROTEOMICS, Volume 22, Issue 9, May 2022., 2022 Abstract Matrix‐assisted laser desorption/ionization imaging mass spectrometry (MALDI IMS) is a powerful technology used to investigate the spatio‐temporal distribution of a huge number of molecules throughout a body/tissue section. In this paper, we report the use of MALDI IMS to follow the molecular impact of an experimental infection of Apis ...

A systems‐based approach to the environmental risk assessment of multiple stressors in honey bees
EFSA Journal, Volume 19, Issue 5, May 2021., 2021 Abstract The European Parliament requested EFSA to develop a holistic risk assessment of multiple stressors in honey bees. To this end, a systems‐based approach that is composed of two core components: a monitoring system and a modelling system are put forward with honey bees taken as a showcase.

CONTROL AND VIABILITY OF BEE NOSEMOSES
Archives of Veterinary Medicine, 2021 Nosemosis is a bee disease practically present in all countries of the world. Control of the presence of Nosema apis and Nosema ceranae is of great importance. The consequences for bees will depend on the degree of infection of the bees colony.Weakening
