Decline in honey bee population - a great threat to farmers and agricultureTeam YOUNGWING
This FPOP is equivalent to FIS of Wright’s F-statistics. Genetic differentiation between six investigated honey bee populations and one outgroup AML population from Italy was performed by the genome wide fixation index, FST, for each SNP pair [28] calculated in PLINK [25]. In addition, we ...
The European honeybee (Apis mellifera) is a key pollinator and has in the last decades suffered significant population decline. A combination of factors, including decrease in genetic diversity and introduction of Varroa mites, have been suggested to be
Honey bee (Apis mellifera) colony loss is a widespread phenomenon with important economic and biological implications, whose drivers are still an open matter of investigation. We contribute to this line of research through a large-scale, multi-variable s

The bad news: Bee habitat is on the decline, and honeybee populations are crashing. The good news: a small garden gesture can have a very positive impact! How can one person help increase the bee population and diversity? Easy! By simply providing a consistent source of pollen and nectar ...
The decline of the honey bee population has been a subject of serious discussion and concern around the world for the last several years. Through a joint effort with the community we hope to help rescue, restore, and rebuild at least some of the bee population, as well as help educate oth...
CCD has been devastating the U.S. honey bee population since at least 2006. The mysterious disorder causes honey bees to disappear from their hives, and their bodies are rarely found. Experts have floated several theories for CCD, including disease, parasites, stress, and lack of access to fo...

Land use, habitat, and forage quality have emerged as critical factors influencing the health, productivity, and survival of honey bee colonies. However, characterization of the mechanistic relationship between differential land-use conditions and ultima
