This study investigates corazonin's role in honey bee workers, finding higher corazonin levels in foragers and role-specific responses to metabolic challenge.

This study examines how aging and Varroa mite infestation affect the blood-brain barrier permeability in honeybees, finding stable paracellular permeability but increased transcellular permeability with high Varroa exposure.

The paper introduces an AI-enhanced marker-assisted selection approach for breeding honey bees with improved Vitellogenin (Vg) alleles to address colony loss challenges.

The paper identifies a 9-nucleotide deletion in honey bee Vg alleles and shows it maintains protein structure and stability using structural bioinformatics and a transformer-based model.

This paper introduces IndeLLM, a method for indel pathogenicity prediction using protein language models and transfer learning, achieving high performance across species.

The paper describes the first global anatomical analysis of the honeybee worker blood-brain barrier and compares ultrastructural features between two age groups.

This study examines how age, social role, and dietary protein affect fat synthesis in honey bees, finding that older bees and those with less protein have reduced fatty acid synthase activity.

The paper develops a statistical method to identify bistability near developmental transitions from gene expression data and applies it to honey bees.

This study shows that a structural subunit of honey bee vitellogenin translocates into cell nuclei and binds DNA, influencing immunity and behavior genes.

The paper screens bioactive compounds in honey bees to show curcumin mitigates ethanol-induced lifespan reduction and DNA methylation changes.
