This study performs genome-wide association analysis on honey bee colonies to identify genetic markers linked to Varroa destructor resistance, revealing a polygenic architecture and supporting genomic selection strategies.

This paper presents statistical methods to estimate genetic ancestry and reconstruct queen genotype from pool sequencing data of eusocial colonies, achieving high accuracy with low error rates.

The paper analyzes genetic structure in Western European honey bees using SNP data from 870 drones, identifying nine genetic backgrounds and large haplotype blocks.

The paper introduces a computational model based on MALDI-MS data to monitor honey bee health by identifying molecular signatures of infection.
