Differential Compartmentalization of Enzymatic Reactions for Lactate Signaling Across Protocells
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Two populations of protocells consisting of giant unilamellar vesicles containing active species and distinct artificial organelles are competent of collective behavior by mimicking production, intercellular communication, and detection of the bioinspired signal molecule lactate. Enzymatic cascade reactions within artificial organelles demonstrate that

The Importance of Males to Bumble Bee (Bombus Species) Nest Development and Colony Viability
Insects, 2020 Simple Summary Populations of some bumble bee species have declined over the last decade. Recognizing the importance of bumble bees to agriculture and natural ecosystems, there has been an upwelling of research to better understand the underlying reasons

Chemoreceptor Evolution in Hymenoptera and Its Implications for the Evolution of Eusociality. [PDF]
, 2015 Eusocial insects, mostly Hymenoptera, have evolved unique colonial lifestyles that rely on the perception of social context mainly through pheromones, and chemoreceptors are hypothesized to have played important adaptive roles in the evolution of ...

Pupal cannibalism by worker honey bees contributes to the spread of deformed wing virus
Scientific Reports, 2020 Transmission routes impact pathogen virulence and genetics, therefore comprehensive knowledge of these routes and their contribution to pathogen circulation is essential for understanding host–pathogen interactions and designing control strategies ...

Quantifying Abdominal Coloration of Worker Honey Bees
InsectsThe main drawback in using coloration to identify honey bee subspecies is the lack of knowledge regarding genetic background, subjectivity of coloration grading, and the effect of the environment. The aim of our study was to evaluate the effect of environmental temperature on the abdominal coloration of honey bee workers and to develop a tool for ...
