Effects of glyphosate on survival, developmental rate, larval weight, and midgut bacterial diversity Apis mellifera were tested in the laboratory. Larvae reared vitro fed diet containing 0.8, 4, 20 mg/L. The dependent variables compared with negative control positive (dimethoate 45 mg/L). Brood survival decreased 4 or mg/L treatments but not 0.8 mg/L, weight treatments. Exposure to three concentrations did affect rate. Furthermore, intestinal communities determined using high-throughput...
Microplastics (MPs) are an emerging threat to ecological conservation and biodiversity; however, little is known of the types possible impacts MPs in pollinators. To examine whether were present honeybees, we analyzed honeybee samples collected fields from six provinces China. Four identified including polystyrene (PS) by Raman spectroscopic analysis, these plastic polymers detected 66.7% bee samples. Then, assessed physical biological PS three sizes (0.5, 5, 50 μm) on bees for 21 days....
The effects of exposing Apis mellifera larvae to common insecticides were tested in the laboratory.The acute toxicity values four that we ranged from high low toxicity: deltamethrin > cypermethrin carbaryl acetamiprid. NOAEC (no observed adverse effect concentration) chronic tests for each compound are 5 mg L-1 acetamiprid, 2 carbaryl, 1 cypermethrin, and 0.2 deltamethrin.According risk quotient (RQ) obtained, is acceptable at exposure rates have been identified field. Overall, our results...
Antibiotics are omnipresent in the environment due to their widespread use, and they have wide-ranging negative impacts on organisms. Virus resistance differs substantially between domesticated Apis mellifera wild cerana, although both commonly raised China. Here, we investigated whether antibiotics can increase sensitivity of honey bees viral infection using Israeli acute paralysis virus (IAPV) tetracycline as representative antibiotic. Although IAPV multiplied lower levels A. cerana than...
Domesticated honeybees and wild bees are some of the most important beneficial insects for human environmental health, but infectious diseases pose a serious risk to these pollinators, particularly following emergence ectoparasitic mite Varroa destructor as viral vector. The acquisition this novel vector from Asian honeybee Apis ceranae has fundamentally changed epidemiology in its new host, western A. mellifera. While recently discovered Lake Sinai Viruses (LSV) have been associated with...
The determinants of Colony Collapse Disorder (CCD), a particular case collapse honey bee colonies, are still unresolved. Viruses including the Israeli acute paralysis virus (IAPV) were associated with CCD. We found an apiary colonies showing typical CCD characteristics that bore high loads IAPV, recovered some from and tested hypothesis if IAPV was actively replicating in them infectious to healthy bees. dominant pathogen it replicated colonies: viral titers decreased April September...
A sublethal concentration of imidacloprid can cause chronic toxicity in bees and impact the behavior honey bees. The nectar- water-collecting, climbing abilities are crucial to survival execution responsibilities bee colonies. Besides behavioral impact, data on molecular mechanisms underlying imidacloprid, especially by way RNA-seq at transcriptomic level, limited. We treated Apis mellifera L. with concentrations (0.1, 1 10 ppb) determined effect behaviors changes. had a limited syrup...
By providing pollination services, bees are among the most important insects, both in ecological and economical terms. Combined next-generation classical sequencing approaches were applied to discover study new insect viruses potentially harmful bees. A bioinformatics virus discovery pipeline was used on individual Illumina transcriptomes of 13 wild from three species genus Halictus 30 ants six genera Messor Aphaenogaster. This allowed description sequences a termed scabiosae Adlikon (HsAV)....
Since the discovery that honey bee viruses play a role in colony decline, researchers have made major breakthroughs understanding viral pathology and infection processes bees. Work on virus transmission patterns vectors, such as mite Varroa destructor, has prompted intense efforts to manage health. However, little is known about occurrence of predators, vespids. In this study, we characterized 11 five vespid species one wasp from four provinces China two locations France. The results showed...
Glyphosate, the active ingredient of most widely used commercial herbicide formulation, is extensively and produced in China. Previous studies have reported sublethal effects glyphosate on honeybees. However, commercially formulated (CFG) at recommended concentration (RC) chronic toxicity honeybees, especially their behaviours, remain unknown. In this study, a series behavioural experiments were conducted to investigate CFG The results showed that there was significant decline water...
The significance of gut microbiota in regulating animal immune response to viral infection is increasingly recognized. However, how chronic bee paralysis virus (CBPV) exploits host disturb for its proliferation remains elusive. Through histopathological examination, we discovered that the hindgut harbored highest level CBPV, and displayed visible signs damages. metagenomic analysis showed a notable reduction levels Snodgrassella alvi Lactobacillus apis, significant increase abundance...
Honey bee viruses are one of the most important pathogens that have contributed to decrease in honey colony health. To analyze infection dynamics viruses, quantification viral gene expression by RT-qPCR is necessary. However, suitable reference genes not been reported from and RNAi studies bee. Here, we evaluated 11 common (ache2, rps18, β-actin, tbp, tif, rpl32, gadph, ubc, α-tubulin, rpl14, rpsa) Apis mellifera (Am) cerana (Ac) under Israeli acute paralysis virus (IAPV), chronic (CBPV),...
Flupyradifurone (FPF) is a novel systemic nAChR agonist that interferes with signal transduction in the central nervous system of sucking pests. Despite claims FPF potentially “bee-safe” by risk assessments, laboratory data have suggested has multiple sub-lethal effects on individual honey bees. Our study aimed to expand studies field-realistic concentration FPF. We found statistically significant decrease survival rate bees exposed FPF, whereas there were no significantly negative larvae...
For detection of cannabidiol (CBD)—an important ingredient in Cannabis sativa L.—amino magnetic nanoparticle-decorated graphene (Fe3O4-NH2-GN) was prepared the form nanocomposites, and then modified on a glassy carbon electrode (GCE), resulting novel electrochemical sensor (Fe3O4-NH2-GN/GCE). The applied Fe3O4-NH2 nanoparticles GN exhibited typical structures intended surface groups through characterizations via transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning (SEM), X-ray powder diffraction...
Apis mellifera filamentous virus (AmFV) is a large DNA that endemic in honeybee colonies. The genome sequence of the AmFV Swiss isolate (AmFV CH-C05) has been reported, but so far very few molecular studies have conducted on this virus. In study, we isolated and purified CN) from Chinese (Apis mellifera) colonies elucidated its genomics proteomics. Electron microscopy showed ovoid virions with dimensions 300-500 × 210-285 nm, wrapping 3165 40 nm nucleocapsid three figure-eight loops....
