Brain transcriptomes of honey bees (Apis mellifera) experimentally infected by two pathogens: Black queen cell virus and Nosema ceranae
Regulation of gene expression in the brain plays an important role in behavioral plasticity and decision making in response to external stimuli. However, both can be severely affected by environmental factors, such as parasites and pathogens. In honey bees, the emergence and re-emergence of pathogens and potential for pathogen co-infection and interaction have been suggested as major components...
متن کاملPhysiological and Behavioral Changes in Honey Bees (Apis mellifera) Induced by Nosema ceranae Infection
Persistent exposure to mite pests, poor nutrition, pesticides, and pathogens threaten honey bee survival. In healthy colonies, the interaction of the yolk precursor protein, vitellogenin (Vg), and endocrine factor, juvenile hormone (JH), functions as a pacemaker driving the sequence of behaviors that workers perform throughout their lives. Young bees perform nursing duties within the hive and h...
متن کاملDoes fumagillin control the recently detected invasive parasite Nosema ceranae in western honey bees (Apis mellifera)?
Western honey bee (Apis mellifera) colonies in Nova Scotia, Canada were sampled in spring and late summer 2007 to evaluate efficacy of fumagillin dicyclohexylammonium (hereafter, fumagillin) against Nosema ceranae. Colonies treated with fumagillin in September 2006 (n=94) had significantly lower Nosema intensity in spring 2007 than did colonies that received no treatment (n=51), but by late sum...
متن کاملColony Level Prevalence and Intensity of Nosema ceranae in Honey Bees (Apis mellifera L.)
Nosema ceranae is a widely prevalent microsporidian parasite in the western honey bee. There is considerable uncertainty regarding infection dynamics of this important pathogen in honey bee colonies. Understanding the infection dynamics at the colony level may aid in development of a reliable sampling protocol for N. ceranae diagnosis, and provide insights into efficient treatment strategies. T...
متن کاملAfrican Honey Bees (apis Mellifera Scutellata) and Nosema (nosema Apis) Infections
Nosema apis has been found on all continents where there is beekeeping using Apis mellifera. However, there is very little data on the prevalence and impact of Nosema apis in honey bee colonies in tropical climates and it may be uncertain if all records of Microsporidia in honey bees actually are records of the same parasite. Also, the development of N. apis has not been documented in tropical ...
