Proteomics of hygienic honey bee (A. mellifera) antenna lateralization

ABSTRACT: In other experiments, we found that hygienic honey bees show lateralized responses to odors associated with brood disease. Bees are also known to have more olfactory sensilla on their right antenna compared to their left. Following this, we performed proteomics on right and left antennae of hygienic honey bees in order to identify a molecular basis for lateralization (N = 5); however, we did not identify any significantly different proteins.
