MetabolomicsGut microbiota-driven regulation of queen bee ovarian metabolism

With the global prevalence of Varroa mites, more and more beekeepers resort to confining the queen bee in a queen cage to control mite infestation or to breed superior and robust queen bees. However, the impact of such practices on the queen bee remains largely unknown. Therefore, we sub...

MetabolomicsConserved cellular signals and mechanisms accompany the reproductive shutdown of honey bee (Apis mellifera) queens for dispersal
Temporal reproductive plasticity is a central life-history trait for most iteroparous animals, yet its underlying molecular mechanisms remain poorly understood. We utilize the reversible reproductive arrest experienced by honey bee queens during colony swarming to investigate how these reproductive ...

TranscriptomicsNutrigenomics in honey bees: the impact of pollen nutrients on bee health
We studied the molecular mechanisms underlying the impact of pollen nutrients on honey bee (Apis mellifera) health and how those nutrients improve resistance to parasites. Using digital gene expression, we determined the changes in gene expression induced by pollen intake in worker bees parasitized ...

TranscriptomicsSocial Regulation of Maternal Traits in Nest-Founding Bumble Bee (Bombus terrestris) Queens
During the nest-founding phase of the bumble bee colony cycle, queens undergo striking changes in maternal care behavior. Early in the founding phase, prior to the emergence of workers in the nest, queens are reproductive and also provision and feed their offspring. However, later in the founding ph...

TranscriptomicsTranscription profiling by array of honey bee queens Apis mellifera L. to investigate the differential effects of insemination volume and substance on reproductive changes
Mating causes dramatic changes in female insects at the behavioral, physiological, and molecular levels. The factors driving these changes (e.g., seminal proteins, seminal volume) and the molecular pathways by which these factors are operating have been characterized only in a handful of insect spe...

TranscriptomicsTranscription profiling by array of honey bee workers orally exposed to two different pesticides (coumaphos, fluvalinate)
We explored the impact of coumaphos and fluvalinate, the two most abundant and frequently detected pesticides in the hive, on genome-wide gene expression patterns of honey bee workers. We found significant changes in 1118 transcripts, including genes involved in detoxification, behavioral maturation...

ProteomicsIntergenerational and biochemical responses of the Western honey bee (Apis mellifera) to sublethal perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) exposures.
Bees are threatened by multiple stressors, including environmental contaminants such as perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS). In this exposure effect study, small whole colonies of A. mellifera (2500 bees) were exposed to sublethal PFOS concentrations (5 to 20 µg L-1 in sugar syrup) over a 25-day period...

ProteomicsDraft genome of the honey bee ectoparasitic mite, Tropilaelaps mercedesae, is shaped by the parasitic life history
Background The number of managed honey bee colonies has considerably decreased in many developed countries in recent years and the ectoparasitic mites are considered as major threats to honey bee colonies and health. However, their general biology remains poorly understood. Results We sequenced the...
