Collection and identification of mutants For ey gene, we carried out two batches of microinjection experiments. Each batch of 30–40 eggs were microinjected. Nine pupated mutants were obtained in the first batch, and 7 pupated mutants were obtained in the second batch. All the mutants were ...
The comparative genomic analysis led to identification of 1,356 orthologs that are conserved between the two Nosema species and genes that are unique characteristics of the individual species, thereby providing a list of virulence factors and new genetic tools for studying host-parasite interactions. ...
Raptors are only part of a much bigger picture, as 327 species, many of them also migrants, have been recorded in the region altogether. White and black storks, and Eurasian cranes, all dramatically large birds, pass through. But there is a multitude of small...
In fact the tags produced by Alien Technology, a world leader in volume production of Radio-Frequency Identification (RFID) products, were produced by Gilbert's team—the same team that placed the first RFID tag on a bee for us. Small and light, passive (2–3 mg) RF bee ...
aPrinciple component analysis (PCA) plot of the honey bee microbiota from adult and larval samples before (Pre-supp) and after (Post-supp) the supplementation period. Sequence variants were collapsed at species-level identification, with clr-transformed Aitchison distances used as input values for ...
2.2Processing of guava–pineapple jelly After pre-processing i.e. cooling, sorting and grading, guava–pineapple jelly was formulated according to the following treatments, calculation and process flow chart (Fig.1). Total weight of the product was 1758 g (1.758 kg). Percent of individual ingred...
(This article belongs to the Special IssueAntioxidant Activity of Honey Bee Products) Abstract The purpose of this investigation was to determine ¹H-NMR profiling and antioxidant activity of the most common types of honey, namely, citrus honey (HC1) (Morcott tangerineL. andJaffa orangeL.), ...
Figure 1.Flow chart of the various methods implemented in the analysis of honey and propolis samples. (A) Maceration of propolis, (A1) Honey samples, (B) extraction of pollen from propolis and honey (pollen analysis), (C) determination of the main vegetation species in propolis and maceration...
The components in honey are influenced by factors such as plant origin, geographical origin, environment and climate, bee species and colony status, processing and storage conditions, etc. Different honey varieties exhibit distinct nutritional profiles and characteristics [2]. Based on their botanical ...
To our knowledge, replication of honey bee viruses in these cell lines has not been tested. Table 2. Permanent cell lines derived from hymenopteran species. The establishment of a continuous cell line from the honey bee has proven difficult, with only two continuous cell lines reported (...
