Sci Rep
. 2025 Jan;
15(1):1587.
PMID: 39794392
The ectoparasitic mite Varroa destructor remains a great threat for the beekeeping industry, for example contributing to excessive winter colony loss in Canada. For decades, beekeepers have sequentially used the...

J Insect Physiol
. 2024 Nov;
159:104720.
PMID: 39510343
Female social insects represent a dramatic exception of the evolutionarily conserved physiological trade-off between reproduction and life span, where aging is positively correlated with reproduction. However, whether this facet of...

Insect Mol Biol
. 2024 Sep;
34(1):185-202.
PMID: 39297191
Social insects, particularly honey bees, have exceptionally high genomic frequencies of genetic recombination. This phenomenon and underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. To characterise the patterns of crossovers and gene conversion...

DeLory T, Romiguier J, Rueppell O, Kapheim K
Annu Rev Genet
. 2024 Jul;
58(1):159-181.
PMID: 38985963
Social insects have the highest rates of meiotic recombination among Metazoa, but there is considerable variation within the Hymenoptera. We synthesize the literature to investigate several hypotheses for these elevated...

Reams T, Rueppell O, Rangel J
J Insect Sci
. 2024 May;
24(3).
PMID: 38805653
The life cycle of Varroa destructor, the ectoparasitic mite of honey bees (Apis mellifera), includes a dispersal phase, in which mites attach to adult bees for transport and feeding, and...

Biol Rev Camb Philos Soc
. 2024 Mar;
99(4):1444-1457.
PMID: 38468146
Resistance to and avoidance of stress slow aging and confer increased longevity in numerous organisms. Honey bees and other superorganismal social insects have two main advantages over solitary species to...

Nat Commun
. 2024 Jan;
15(1):725.
PMID: 38272866
Ectoparasitic mites of the genera Varroa and Tropilaelaps have evolved to exclusively exploit honey bees as food sources during alternating dispersal and reproductive life history stages. Here we show that...

PMID: 38089582
Environmental variation selects for the adaptive plasticity of maternal provisioning. Even though developing honeybees find themselves in a protected colony environment, their reproductively specialized queens actively adjust their maternal investment,...

PMID: 38036199
Israeli acute paralysis virus (IAPV) is a highly virulent, Varroa-vectored virus that is of global concern for honey bee health. Little is known about the genetic basis of honey bees...

PMID: 36414079
Age-based division of labor among workers is a fundamental life-history trait of many social insects, including the Western honey bee, Apis mellifera L. Extensive studies of the causation of the...
