The functionality of arbuscular mycorrhizal networks across scales of experimental complexity and ecological relevance

Functional Ecology, Volume 39, Issue 6, Page 1384-1399, June 2025.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract One of the most prevalent symbioses on Earth is that formed between the majority of land plants and arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi. Through these intimate associations, AM fungi transfer soil nutrients to their plant hosts in exchange for photosynthetically fixed ...

Ecology and Pathogenicity for Honey Bee Brood of Recently Described Paenibacillus melissococcoides and Comparison With Paenibacillus dendritiformis, Paenibacillus thiaminolyticus

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 17, Issue 3, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Honey bee colonies contain thousands of individuals living in close proximity in a thermally homeostatic nest, creating ideal conditions for the thriving of numerous pathogens. Among the bacterial pathogens, Paenibacillus larvae infects larvae via the nutritive jelly that adult workers feed them, causing the highly contagious American ...

Growth inhibition of Beauveria bassiana by bacteria isolated from the cuticular surface of the corn leafhopper, Dalbulus maidis and the planthopper, Delphacodes kuscheli, two important vectors of maize pathogens [PDF]

, 2011
The phytosanitary importance of the corn leafhopper, Dalbulus maidis (De Long and Wolcott) (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae) and the planthopper, Delphacodes kuscheli Fennah (Hemiptera: Delphacidae) lies in their ability to transmit phloem-associated plant ...

Preliminary assessment of the nutritive value of dietary exuviae from black soldier fly (Hermetia illucens) pupae in Mozambique tilapia

Journal of the World Aquaculture Society, Volume 56, Issue 3, June 2025.
Abstract A by‐product of black soldier fly (Hermetia illucens) larvae (BSFL) farming is the chitin‐rich “exuviae” (exoskeleton shell) that is left behind after the prepupae larvae metamorphose into adults. Moreover, exuviae is present in BSFL meal and frass.

Antagonistic interactions between honey bee bacterial symbionts and implications for disease

BMC Ecology, 2006
Background Honey bees, Apis mellifera, face many parasites and pathogens and consequently rely on a diverse set of individual and group-level defenses to prevent disease. One route by which honey bees and other insects might combat disease is through the

Antimicrobial Activity of Phenolic Extract of Apple Pomace against Paenibacillus larvae and its Toxicity on Apis mellifera

Journal of Apicultural Science, 2020
Apis mellifera populations are exposed to different biotic and abiotic stressors that affect bee survival. Paenibacillus larvae, the causative agent of American foulbrood, is one of the most important bacterial pathogens that affect bee health.

Environmental DNA Methods for Detection of Varroa destructor in Honey Bee (Apis mellifera) Hives

Environmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 3, May–June 2025.
The parasitic mite, Varroa destructor, is a worldwide problem for honey bees (Apis mellifera). Using a new species‐specific qPCR assay, we assessed the detection of V. destructor eDNA collected in honey and surface swabs from managed bee hives in Australia, where V. destructor has recently invaded, and in New Zealand, where V. destructor is established.

Galleria mellonella (L.) (Pyralidae) und Spodoptera exigua (Hübner) (Noctuidae): Wirkungsunterschiede zwischen XenTari® (Bacillus thuringiensis aizawai), NeemAzal T/S® und ihren Kombinationen [PDF]

, 2008
Both, G. mellonella and S. exigua, are most important pests in tropical countries. G. mellonella has five to six generations per year (Abid et al. 1997; Ali 1996), there, and feeding in bee combs they find, besides wax, residues of honey, insect skin and

Honey bee-collected pollen is a potential source of Ascosphaera apis infection in managed bumble bees [PDF]

, 2019
The trade of bumble bees started in the early nineties for pollinator-dependent greenhouse plants. Nowadays, its rearing and transport have received public attention, since managed bees can transfer pathogens to wild bee populations.
