This study compares the reproductive performance of honey bee queens from different genetic lineages and finds that Russian and feral queens have higher fecundity and contribute to more sustainable colony growth than commercial queens.

This study identifies gene expression differences and pathways associated with mite-biting behavior in honeybees, showing coordinated activation of neural, metabolic, and muscular systems.

This study examines how landscape types and seasons affect the virome composition of honeybees, finding higher viral abundance in conventional farms and late seasons.

This study compares oxidative stress levels in honey bees and small carpenter bees from conventional, organic, and roadside landscapes, finding higher oxidative stress in organic bees and lower in roadside bees.

This study identifies stable reference genes for RT-qPCR in the wild bee Ceratina calcarata across developmental stages and environments.

The paper compares viromes of managed and wild bees using RNA-seq, identifying known pathogens and novel viruses in both species.
